I'm also 14 and I fish muskies all the time. However I would recomend buying a slightly higher quality rod. The first reason is that you probably want a rod of at least eight feet for musky fishing. The best choice would be a St. Croix. They are much more durable and more comfortable to fish. As for a reel, try abu garcia. They are great for the price and extremely durable. Hope this was helpful.Answers
A:
I believe the 6'3'' is strong enough for trolling its very stiff. but i recommend pairing it with a reel with a clicker and setting the drag just right where current and speed of boat wont take drag. but hooking a fish will.A:
This rod can be used for trolling, but i recommend casting.

A:
I think it would work for trolling. You would probably want a longer length rod fo trolling, though.A:
It's really for jerk baits, heavy ones. You might be able to troll with it if you had a down rigger. You would probably need the longer version for that though.Details:
Bait casting or SpinningSecond question-
Would it affect the performance of the rod if I carved into it just above the trigger to get to the backbone for increased sensitivity?
Answers
A:
I paired it with Shimano Corvalus CVL401 and it Looks Sexy.. the reel color matches with the rod nicely.

A:
I'm not sure about the first guestion, but I can answer the second one. It probably wouldn't affect the performmance of the rod, but I wouldn't recomend doing that unless you have special tools and can do a very good job. Also, most muskie rods don't have an exposed blank near the trigger for two reasons. The first is that when fishing with large muskie baits, it really wouldn't do much for the sensitivity and the second reason is that most muskie fisherman hold the rod by the foregrip. Even if you prefer holding the rod by the handle, when throwing muskie lures, you will probably end up using the foregrip anyway since it is much less tiring with huge lures. Anyway, it wouldn't change the rods performance to carve into the handle, but I wouldn't recomend it. Hope thie was helpful.A:
I like the Abu Garcia Ambassaduers in the 6600 size.Answers
A:
I would not suggest this rod for trolling for muskys. It would be great for walleye and maybe even pike but it is not long enough or strong enough for musky trolling

I use mine fishing shark and cobia it works good. No probs yet.Answers
A:
should be great for pike though could be a little tougher
Top 50 Contributor
A:
It would work for pike, but it would be best to put a little more money into it and get a browning medallion muskie rod or even a st. croix. Hope this was helpul.
A:
yes this is a great rod for big fish i caught a 46inch musky on this rod ( 6'3 XH) last month. pick one up1 of 1
