How stiff should be rod for salmon trolling? There is opinion that softer rod is providing better lure playing. So, what rod is better - rated 20lb, 30lb or 40lb? Thanks

FreeOnBoard from TX says You'll probably have better luck on the Allcoast board
http://www.allcoast.com/discussion/ Might find a few folks on the Pacific Northwest or Alaska sections that have firm opinions on that. Been a few years since I was out there, but seem to recall that the head boats used the same rig that they did for albacore, 30 lb. with a fairly soft rod tip. Good luck.
