My early googism was chunking with treble hooks because the meat stays on better .. Caught a 24" striper the hook buried in its throat .. I cut the line and released it knowing it wasn't able to feed like that . That was the end of trebles and rod holders .
How about buying a 6' boat rod with some god awful Penn conventional reel for my skiff and then going ahead and using it at the Powder Point Bridge! Brilliant! Oh yea and then I went ahead and tried to cast it out! Can you say Birds Nest?!
