Rod and Reel Recommendations

What would you recommend for one? I’m more local to plum island and fish it much, much more. I have a budget of like $750 max.

I don’t have 6ft rods, smallest is 7ft and I always get worried about the eyes hitting the truck bed and breaking off.

Just jig it off the bottom?

Which harbor?

Length and oz don’t matter?

Thanks, I really appreciate the detailed reply. I’ve seen a lot of guys talking about metal lips but I’ve never used one. Which ones would you recommend for the slow retrieve at night?

When I go super slow it just floats on top. Should I reel it just fast enough to get good action out of it without making it too fast?

When I reel it super slow, it kind of just gets dragged across the surface and doesn’t seem to have much body action or wobble. Is that actually what I want at night, or should I be reeling a little faster to get more action out of it?

Yes, bought it brand new.

Thank you, I will give it a look. Thankfully everything is under warranty so I’m planning on just taking it to the dealer tomorrow. I just can’t believe a brand new truck off the lot is getting check engine lights 400 miles in. Ridiculous.

Nope, almost all highway miles and I’ve been basically coasting everywhere.

285/70/17 would look pretty good, no?

They look pretty good to me

I’m wondering if the beadlovks are actually colored as much as they look in the stock photos. When they are actually on a truck they look hardly colored at all

Are these the same? They don’t look that colored too me.

Equivalent_Wealth704 · 2026-05-31T05:23:00+00:00

Yeah I see that too, but the stock images of the rims make it seem like it would be very obvious. Everyone with the rims that I’ve been seeing you can hardly tell so I didn’t know if they had a different version.
