What kind of rods do you guys like for this? I'm using some burly thick rods. Seems like everyone else has thinner more flexy ones. Maybe that's why I've lost two out of three fish (broke leaders)? One of my trolling rods is a Berkley "Big Game" with a penn 209 on it. Looks more like a deep sea fishing combo. I'm switching to 30lb leaders right now. I'll be out there in the morning.
If you wanted to get really technical, the second rod isn't "closely attended" (by the person fishing it), therefore outside of the regs.

LOL....I am going to disagree with you here, I think the person being on the boat and alive makes it "closely attended". I can find nothing about the person needing to be awake...
I think that rule is for like some guys fishing from shore and one makes a beer run, his rod would not be "closely attended" while he is off at the QuickyMart getting more Bud Light...
Damn that's a pretty pick of my boat.. funny thing is tho I wasn't poaching cause I had my gf laying in the front of the boat taking a nap. [emoji24]

But a pretty minor violation in the grand scheme of things, IMO.
And I'm cracking up that it was a member here.
I would agree but then we'd both be wrong.
My apologies mosd, I'm surprised nobody recognized your boat on here.
