I bought the 4 Pinnacle $60 deal from GrizzlyJigs but have yet to use them for crappie. That will happen in a few weeks. As you stated they are a little heavy but longlining with them in a rod holder they should be satisfactory. Have used them only for snatching mullet.. This takes a rod with staying power and I'm actually surprised at how these rods have held up under the punishment mullet snatching will inflict.

And on the rods, the Pinnacle Limits at 4 for $60 or hard to beat. I have 6 of them and they have served me well. They are not as light and sensitive as my B&M BGJP rods, but they are great for tight lining and long lining.
