Thread: Rod Length?

I like my 10f ozark

Camo, hope you make it to Arthur. Farmboy and i are going and maybe a couple of other coworkers. i have been looking at the Ozarks for some time now. I have never used a rod over 7' and have been thinking about trying. Hope to see you there!

I will be there rods are on the way.I will be in the ILLINOIS HOTSPOTS booth #35,I'm bringing rods from 6' to 12' in different actions.9'-11' are my favorites,hope to see you there!

ehall, once you fell the thump on a long rod, you'll be hooked, LOL. I don't use anything under 10', not even for casting. It'll take you a little while to get the hang of casting a long rod but you'll get use to it.

Thats it, I'm speed dialing my bank loan officer! LOL. I love this site! I have been drooling over these Ozark rods for a while now, and if all goes well, look to pull the trigger soon. What reel do you use on yours? Casting is about all i am doing in Illinois, that and what organizing i can, 12 inches or more of ice!

I use pfleuger spinning reels on them and with the longer rods I never actually cast them i'ts easier to flip and with the long rods you can flip a jig and slip bobber 100' easy.Casting those long rods will wear you out in a days time.

ehall,these rods are priced right and the company has really nice people and easy to work with.They treat you right,but hey the guy that owns it is a crappie fisherman.The most expensive rod they have is like 75.00

I love corking with my 10' b&m . If I ever use a slip bobber though (which is rarely) I use my 7' crappie Max rod.
