Whew! I thought you were calling us amateurs names.
When I lived out of the states we used 12-14' hand poles (fiberglass rods without reels) to target the minnows we were going to use on the perch and the pike in the canals. I know that minnows don't have a lot of fight to them, but those rods were a good way to sneak up on the baitfish and I wanted to emphesize your point on the longer rods! Thanks for the flashbacks!
