hi im 14 i live in chesepeake beach maryland and me and my dad fish on the bay alot usually down by the power plant or solomons and i caught a 55 lb striper this spring were using penn 30's we have 8 of them and were using the accurate boss boat series rod with a 40lb test and we love our setup please comment back and give me other good setups for accurate products

[stripers182]

Wow! What a great accomplishment at age 14! Please email me tmsmedley@hotmail.com

[stripers182]

Sounds like you have a pretty great Dad. The new Accurate products are just incredible. I strictly use accb7020c 7ft. Xtreme Rods, they are super light and thin. They are great for live bait or trolling. They are as thin as my pinky just above the foregrip, yet are rated for 50lb braid!

[stripers182]

As for reels, I use the 500 BX (N)arrows, and the 400 BX single speeds. Then of course, the 400 BX-2- speed reels are the cream of the crop. I'm limited on space here, but feel free to email me @ tmsmedley@hotmail.com - Thanks Buddy! Stay safe on the water, and leave a few for me.-Mike Smedley

[stripers182]

I'm willing to bet that you have never used an Accurate reel. Am I right? - MIKE

[foggj76]

eels always bring in the bad boys......

[St3vIeWoNdErS]

[Pavee1987]

[Idtelos]

Accurate reels are the best! I love my ACCURATE ATD 80W!

[baseballx42]

where is this ny?

[stripers182]

The lower Chesapeake Bay.

[hmoobvirus]

what bait ya using? looks like snake

[ecvjohnny]

probably an eel.

[fishantiser]

Those are some nice setups you guys are using... If you dont mind me asking what kind of rods are those... They seem to have a really nice action to them. I recently picked up a boss magnum 870 2spd and was looking for a good live bait rod for it... let me know

[stripers182]

The new Accurate Rods are INSANE! For under $200, their rods are rated for 50lb test, and are HALF the weight of other rods rated for 17-25lb test! With a great backbone and soft tip, they are the ultimate live bait rod. Swing a 30lber right over the rail!

[GAROmx]

the reel looks compact  "but its powerful"

[JRocker921]

Amazing Fish!
