Thread: New Crappie Rod in Town

There is a new crappie rod on the market. Went to Florida last week and planned on doing my usual week of fishing. Went by the bait shop and there were some rods hanging up on the ceiling. The owner of the bait shop took one down for me and we took it outside. WOW!!!!!. You talking about a crappie rod. It was a 16' pole and I have yet to see any other pole to compare with it. I have always been a big fan of the BnM PST rods, but my mind has been changed. The back bone is unbelievable and the tip is stll sensitive enough to see the slightest of bites. When we got back to where I was staying that day we compared it to both the Walley Marshal 16' rod and the BnM PST 16' rod. It was lighter in weight than the Walley Marshal and slightly heaver than the BnM. Again, the back bone in this rod was better than the Walley Marshal and the BnM PST rods hands down. The rod is a Vexan Rod. They have been making rods for bass and walleye fishing and now have started making rods for crappie fishing. Right now they have them in 6.6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 foot lengths. They are made with a modified IM8+ trade secret Titan TM technology blank. The "BAR HAS BEEN RAISED" in a crappie rod.

Wise choice Spider ...Well I can say that the Vexan rod is in a class by it's self and I have a couple and will be replacing the remainder of my front poles with Vexan and will also switch my longline poles to Vexan I'm smitten these poles are a game changer sort of like Millennium rod holders you just can't help but notice them and once you fish with them you and the fish are hooked
