Thread: Test on the new Southern Crappie SCR143T poles

Dang, 3oz of weight have my 16' B'n'M PST rods double back under the boat

Good read.

I order two of them Doug waiting for them to arrived. Ed said they was good for long lining too.

So would these poles be classified as good choices for spider rigging, long lining, vertical jigging? In other words....a good all-around rod?

I like a slower tip for longlining and vertical jigging like the action of the regular Southern rods. These are the berries for pulling and pushing cranks and spider rigging.

How long of a leader line and lb. test do you run from the weight back to the crankbait when pushing this set up?

I was using the same Okuma Magda 15s I pull cranks with and 12 pound Trilene Big Game Solar 12 pound test down to the sinkers. I use 6 pound Viscious leader about 3 feet back to a swivel and the crank.
