Bucks graphite jig pole by bnm is the lightest pole tip and the absolute hands down best pole for the light weight single jig set up. i wouldn't go fishing without them

When Ress got his first set of white pole she invited me to fish with him. Couple of weeks later we were able to get together. He had 4 of those and 4 of another brand. We fished 2 ea Olof both rods. Was convinced I would not pay that much for a rod. At the end of the trip I ordered a set of the white poles. Granted we caught fish on both brands off poles but there was no comparison to the sensitivity and back Bone of the white poles. And I'm a diehard southern crappie fan. Still keep them in the boat but those white poles sold me on going ahead and spending the money on something that really works for you. Like Ress said, best thing is fish with someone who has what you are interested in to see if it really works for you. To me it's all personal preference and what works for you. A lot of people I consider really good fishermen tout the BGJP and undoubtedly they work great for them. I just don't and haven't ever liked them for a trolling pole, once again personal preference. There are so many choices out there today on good quality products it's hard to make a choice even when people get on here and promote one over the other.

so is terrova trolling motors and big depth finders and big boats and a pull truck and so on.
When it comes to actually catching the fish they help me, I can fish 1/4oz all the way up to 3oz with these poles.
There is no one on here that squeezes a buck any titer than I do but I also do not mind paying for a good product. I slow troll with these poles, I power troll with these poles and I push and pull cranks with them, not another pole out there that I have found that will do that and still perform at the top in each element. PST is most likely the closest to them as far as that.
Go buy a set of poles for slow trolling, then a set to power troll and pull cranks and then compare prices. That's apples to apples.

So you use them for all those techniques?

I do, they do load up pretty good pushing cranks but they handle it very well.

If you can cherry pick your days poles don't matter much but on a tough day, whether it be wind or super lite bight or whatever, poles make a huge difference. Price to me has gotten to where it just don't matter, if it works for me and I'm confident in it then I will have it. May have to not take Ms. Tammy out a time or two but thats ok. We spend a lot of change in our sport, some of it not needed, buying what we want, but when you find a pole, a hook, a line, a rig, ect. ect. , you like you go with it. I learn so much each year and I hope and pray I have many more years.
Been on the phone texting with a friend I met fishing tournaments, helping him here, he helps me in the delta and we learn from each other. This aspect of what we do here and on the lake is my favorite part.
Best advice is to get in the boat with someone who has what you are looking at and fish with them, no better way to try em then to slime some up.
Good luck whatever you decide, have fun and post some pics of the slabs you catch with them.

Exactly,that's why I settled with bgjp's.Fishing with someone else and seeing how they perform first hand makes a big difference.I chose the bgjp's because I don't use alot of weight 90%of the time when fishing.Hope to get in a boat with someone someday and try the white poles out
