Buddy of mine is going Striper fishing on Anna this weekend. I've never done it but he asked Myadvice on what tackle he should buy.

is it typical to use regular bass rods? what test line should he buy, and what lures work well at Anna for stripers?

Thanks for any help. I'm gonna run to walmart with him at lunch tomorrow so he can pick up some stuff.

He hasn't fished in years. His friend just bought a boat and invited him along.
