    Default Best rod for Road Runners


    What are some good rods for mainly throwing road runners?
    I mainly want something that I can get a good distance with and will be primarily fishing out of a boat.
    Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Where did you get the 6 and a half footer? All I've seen online are 9 to 12 ft rods.

    6 to 8 ft southern crappie rods are excellent choices.

    I have a 6.5 ft. Wally Marshal spinning rod paired with a Shimano reel that has the trigger on the bail, which helps in casting. I love it for casting jigs or road runners.
