My boss's boss is going to be leaving the company and I want to build him a rod, he's been a good dude. He just finished building a house on Lake Hartwell and while he's casually fished most of his life it sounds like since he's been on Hartwell he's really been enjoying the stripers there.
I've caught a decent number of hybrids but haven't ever gone after the straight stripers, just none really around here. Not sure what blank would be a good one. It's going to have to be built as a spinning rod.
I'm thinking just a Rod Geeks B2 7'6" MH. Sounds like he throws some scroungers, spoons, bucktails and spooks. Anyone else have a suggestion?
