Shimano Terez for a Yoyo stick? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Yo-yo is about the least subtle technique there is and basicly requires a heavy tough rod that can absorb some shock as the fish hits on a tight line and tight drag. You don't need a fast action rod or actually want one. I'm sure terez or phoenix would work great but so will a seeker, calstar, or saber fiberglass rod. The terez and phoenix will be lighter but maybe over kill for a yo-yo stick. If you want to put a premium rod in your quiver consider a light/sensitive bait stick or jig stick. MHO Mike
