u/KIND_OF_A_DICK_TBH

Just got a kayak and was looking for advice on a live line setup

Im normally a surf fisherman and with the exception of throwing the occasional eels i dont do much with live bait, usually just plugs

That said on a kayak where snagging bunker is a touch easier and I dont need to cast it any real distance im not sure what im looking for in a rod

I have a 6k live line reel but idk what weight rating and power rod I should be looking for,

Will mostly be used for bunker or eels, maybe the occasional shad if im in the ct river where I can keep them

Looking to stay around 200ish for the rod. Its a kayak I dont want anything im gonna hang myself if I loose it lol
