Rod Holders ?

[Tagger]

luds is right on .. imho ... one rod ..If your going to chunk hold the rod in your hands to feel the bump then bow . Bouncing rods in rod holders just loose fish . They feel it and drop it ..On the other hand eels and plugs is a good idea also to cover more water.. run and gun ..

Well re-registered couldn't handle being called the skunk and skunkmaster.I'll log in as him when the name fits.I've been thinking about it and I'm going to fish one pole from now on.I'm looking at a ten foot Tsunami airwave pole.I think it will be comfortable for plugs and chunks.Didn't want to ruin a new pole in the rocks but seeing as I will work only 1 from now on it will be in my hands.Right now I'm plugging with an 8ft uglystick lite and chunking with a 12ft Shakespeare big game walmart rod.I can't see using it for any long periods of time or to cover ground with.Heavy as hell and stiff as a board.So I guess it goes from rod holders to anyone got any feedback on a tsunami airwave pole ?

Couldn't agree more. I'm not a chunker but like one of Clint's famous lines "adapt and over come" if that's what it takes especially the way the last two years have been, whatever it takes. One rod , eels and plugs they'll tell you what they want. Same for chunking one rod , keep it in your hands, keep the line above the waves, feel the pick up, engage, bow and set.

Good decision on the name. I don't know anything about the tsunami rods but I would suggest checking out Quarrow. They seem to be pretty moderate which would be good for plugs and eels IMO.
