While I currently use some BGJPs for spider rigging, I've also used both Crappie Thunder (can't find them at Academy anymore) and B&M Pro-Staff rods for pulling crankbaits. While I did put my 14' Crappie Thunders back to spider rig duty with my 14' and 16' BGJPs, I still use a 10' Prostaff and 14' Southern Crappie Trolling Rod for pulling crankbaits.
