Walking along the stream bed with a centerpin rod and reel in your hand you feel the powerful surge of the current rushing by as you journey upstream in search of the trophy steelhead; the towering white bluffs of the Ozarks rising upward set the perfect backdrop to casting your centerpin rod and reel combination in the crystal clear streams as your lure suspends underneath the float toward hungry smallmouth bass waiting for an easy meal. No matter what species you are targeting, centerpin fishing delivers your bait perfectly down current making for a faultless drift.
