7 foot boat spinning rod?

[TomKaye]

Hello Kevin.
I have a Fish Poison for the last two years, and my son loves the blackfish rod I just picked up from you for his Christmas gift.

I don't know why, but I didn't think of Fish Poison & Spinning in the same sentence. Brain fart !
Most of my stuff is conventional for use on our own boat ( sold ) or fishing on friends' boats.
I hope you get back in your Broadway Shop soon.

Fish Poison rods seem to me to be great quality and value. I need to work on my budget.

Tight lines & a Happy Healthy New Year to all.

Tom K.

Even a rod for big catfish and carp might work, but everything is fiberglass..
hollow glass is too soft when fishing in 240 foot of water with 12 oz. of lead in a heavy current.. He claims he can't feel the hits... Anyway, I am looking for a spinning rod for party boat fishing thats all graphite and is reasonably priced.. I don't want to buy a $350 rod to go out for ling once or twice a year... Any help as to where I can buy something like I described??..

ps.. He does NOT like conventional reels, spinning only.. I have found several suitable conventional rods locally, but he wants a spinner... bob
