Has any built a bobber rod for side drift out of a boat, this guy wants a Bobber rod for drifting for Salmon / Steelhead and it should be a Med - Fast action blank and it will be a casting rod and he will be fishing on the Willamette River in Oregon if that helps! so what do you guys think would work best.

One of the blanks listed above - as a drift / float rod in the action and power you like will be perfect for your needs. Be safe Re: Stealhead Salmon bobber drift rod

It really takes 2 rods, but if I had to pick it would be the Lamiglas XSH 120 2MT. It has a faster, softer tip than like rods of similar power, letting your customer to possibly bridge the two different weighted presentations. There is really no way I can see to fish fall chinook with a lighter rod, and I myself use a considerably heavier rod for chinook. Re: Stealhead Salmon bobber drift rod

Agree with Spencer. A rod that's heavy enough to side drift for both fish will be satisfying for neither. The steelhead version works best with a 9' or 9'6 4-8 lb or 6-10 lb test with a soft tip for casting small baits. The salmon version is around 9'6" to 10'6" rated 10-17lb or 12-20lb again with a moderate tip. The longer length salmon version can also double for a bobber rod although some anglers like a faster tip for bobber fishing.
