we are talking about Crappie fishing ; here we go we are longlining using rodholders the object of this technique is to catch fish !!! right !!!

now here we go ; we got 8 rods at $80 ea , 8 reels $80 ea that's $1280 for the set-up
say another guy has 8 rods $30 ea and 8 reels at $12 ea that's $336 for the set-up !!!

say both guys come home with a limit each !!! can someone tell me why a person would over $1000 for rods&reels for longlining when all you do is cast the jig and set the rod in the rodholder ??? can a fish tell if its being caught on a $1000 set-up compared to a $336 set-up ??????
