I got interested in the FnF system last year after reading what these guys were posting......I too fish mainly stoner creek (fryman pool)... I bought the FnF starter kit with the jigs ,a couple bobbers and the dope stuff and a 9'
FnF rod....I found after messing with the things for a while I find myself using
a 6 1/2 foot spinning rod most of the time..( not an FnF expert by no means)
but it seems 7 or 8 feet is about all that is practical leader to fish with the depth changing so radically....I would think you might not want to use a very stiff rod though...I use the same rod I bluegill fish with.
