You can get away with a standard all-purpose casting rod and enjoy moderate success, but finding and using the proper rod will ultimately lead to longer casts, easier bite detection and most importantly, a higher hookup ratio

Size: 3 5 Colors: Natural leopard frog, black shore minnow, and G-Finish blue shad are my preferred colors Cost: From $7.99 This is a category-defining lure
Many companies make a 12-carrier braid (including Daiwa Saltiga EX12, aka Morethan12), and Suffix make a 13-carrier (Sufix 131) which imo is a superior casting line to Sufix 832
We throw a lot of the shad patterns including those with lavender, chartreuse, or brown backs

I use Berkley X9 braid attached to a fluorocarbon leader for most deep and clear water fishing applications I do. Capt Mark says explicitly, for drop shot fishing in the clear waters of the Northeast, I use 6- or 8-pound braid with an 8 to 10pound fluorocarbon leader. Mark adds that one of the primary reasons he uses braided lines is that it increases his customers sense of feel when fishing deep water
