I must say the Bass circuits I have been chasing do NOT treat the new guys like this. I am in awe of it and very humbled. The way this country has been going lately has had me down but you gentlemen and ladies have put me in such a great mood. I want to meet and share a day in the boat with each one of you. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

Hey, Sarge, come on up to Dardanelle this spring to crappie camp, and be sure and bring that depth finder with all those hundreds of piles marked in it and you'll make a big hit!!!

Welcome as others have said. I still like the bassin myself but do plenty of crappie fishing now too. My best choice for poles are the B&M ones in whatever length you prefer. I'm not much in the 12' and over category but that's a preference thing. You can't go wrong with the smaller Pleuguer reels to go on them though. I've never cared for their bait casting reels but they make an awesome spinning reel. I bass fish for fun, I crappie fish for fun and food so the crappie fishing wins out a lot. For spider rigging I've made my own thing but from what i've seen theirs some sweet looking ones out there. All I wanted was a simple 4 rod holder on front of my boat which I made outa some all thread and flat metal along with the holders at walmart. Oh, and be sure to post pics if you do happen to catch em.

Welcome from NLR. There a lot of info on here and a lot of guys willing to help. I'm just getting back into fish myself. I have not bass fish in 20 years. Some day are better the other crappie fish.
