I bought a denali 10ft rear seat last year and its a nice jig pole nothing bad to say about it. I just bought a acc crappie stix and will try it out this year but everytime I try i new rod I always seem to go back to my ozark 10ft rear seat! I have 3 10ft rear seats a 11ft regular seat and a 8 ft regular and love them all! The ozarks will be tough to beat!
