I prefer the longer rod 8'or longer, it allows me longer drifts with less line drag in the water and I can keep in direct contact with the float, and quicker hooks sets at longer distances, the fly rod works great ,but every now and then you will have to deal with the wind factor,bottom line it's what works best for you all of the advice given is great advice find on that works best for you

Al,I know some folks down around Baxter Srings Ks. who harvest gar (they bow fish for them), Not only for the flesh,but for the "roe", this is one of the best channel cat baits of the spring,they use a limb saw or a bow saw to chunk it up then fillet off the chunks,I've eatin them and they are suprizingly pretty good,It's just a lot of work.
