Thread: Crappie Rods

I was talking to a friend yesterday about crappie rods and the difference in the rods and prices. Some day I will buy some of the Southern Crappie rods but I don't have any complaint about my Pinnacle rods. They have been through a lot of fishing time and have pulled in many crappie and even striper in the 2 to 15 pound range and handles anything that has jumped on the jigs. I'll tell you another rod I'm pleased with, the Academy Tournament Choice rods. I have two 12' I use and they have a good backbone. Hard to find them in the stores but you can find them on their site and like the Pinnacle rods they cost right at $20. Just my feedback on two of the cheaper rods.

If youre talking longlining I've used the 8', 10' and 12' rods since I started longliningg (which has been 5 or 6 years ago) and am still using those same rods. None have broken yet and as Ronnis said...theyve caught stripers andf catfish up to 15#'s . You can still get 4 for $66 off Ebay and The Crappie Hole in Chapin, SC sells them too. There's also a member here that sell them...forget his name now, someone help.

I have fished with both rods mentioned and out of the 2 I like the Pinnacle the best and Grizzly Jigs has a good deal on them you can buy 4 rods for $60.00 !!!

Yep....Grizzly Jigs. Thanks Joe.
