    I talked to Ed Dukes the other day. He told me those big weights are to much for the SouthernCrappie rods. You won't break the tip but to much bow in them for pushing. PST's will work fine and make a good Rigging pole if your looking for dual purpose rod's. If wanting straight pushing poles get some of those poles SCOTTV uses from Grizzly jig. They are bigger, heavier composite rods but inexpensive and tough.

    PST's. they work just fine for spider rigging also. I've used them for both for a lot of years now.
