Where can we find the bottom fishing rods like on the party / charter boats? They are simple-looking white rods with the funky grips. I'll attach a pic of what I'm talking about. There any stores around that sell these rods? Or whats the deal?

he's a guy from pensacola who builds custom rods...

his forum name is "linda&Ernie" (may be Ernie&Linda)

he can build you a set of bottom-bumping rods with those grips...
