    I think it goes beyond east-west.The north west uses diff from the so cal rods.Have not fished the no east but have the so east.From what I have seen is the limited use of spin tackle in the so cal area compared to the so east.Also stiffer but sections and lighter tips in the so cal area.Also the use of longer rods seem to be a trend with many fishing 8 to 10 ft.Im still stuck in the 7ft world.This does NOT include any trolling tackle as that seems to me a bit more universal.JMO,Tom

    The west coast uses Snoopy and Barbie poles and can't catch a fish. The East Coast uses the good stuff.
    Now you no confuse any more.

    Lest we forget, Ron Popeil, inventor of the "Popeil Pocket Fishermen", with which Barbie would not be caught dead, is an east coast boy.

    whoooooooooh , what going on here.


    when i was fishing the east ( canada ) at humbard river which tyes into the lake ontario.
    i notice the type of fishing they do is called FINESSING.
    NOW , i dont know if the whole eats coast do this .

    long rods ( bass type ) 6lb test, fishing for 30lb species....... what a challege that i do admire..........


    here in the west coast, WE ARE AGGRESSIVE FISHERMEN.

    WHY, THE DAMB S.O.B. IS PULLING 25LB OF DRAGS OFF THE REELS.LOL ( tuna fishin)

    MY GUESS IS, warm waters differs to cold waters.
