Float Rod

[woodywsu]

I run a 9'6" and I think it is plenty long enough. Although it varies what type of water you are fishing also. Big water would be nicer to have a longer rod to help with line mending.

I'm going to have to be the odd ball here, but I use a 6'6'' medium light action spinning rod.  It's my favorite because of the brushy areas I fish.  It also fits inside my smaller truck without having to break it down between fishing stops.  That's kinda nice.  I've been debating buying a 10'6" as they are proven to be the ticket.

I use either a 9'8" or 10'6" for all my float fishing.

Most guys at the BD using the 13' rods aren't using floats...

I used to use a 10'6" until I switched to a 12'... Now ill never look back. 10'6" still gets used out of the boat the 12' is too big for that.

Most at the DB go from main line to barrel swivel to leader to hook.  Nothing between...  That 13 to 15 foot rod allows them to get their eggs out there.

I have a 9'6'' lami for drano type fishing with bobbers. Its a 6-10 lb with 10 izorline.

I have two of my rods with 20 lb PowerPro.  I have only used it over the last month.  It is starting to grow on me.

There is the occasional split shot on the leader too...not that I've ever been one of those guys with the 13' rod

LOL,  You might have been one of the people I have watched over the last four months.

I've seen a lot with those long rods. Seen a handful with 15 footers. One guy catches more steelhead than anyone else (from what I've personally witnessed) uses a 15' Loomis.

Wouldn't mind that 12'3" Loomis float rod for kings though

I use a 10'6" Okuma spinning rod for float fishing.. works great.  I use it for Drano, White Salmon, and the Klickitat.

I know the person with the 15.  He can toss spoons with that long rod as well as eggs. He is a stud...
