    If you're gonna use a 10 pole for single poling, vertical jigging or float and jig I think a set up is SHSS 10' rear seat with Mr. Crappie Solo reels is perfect. If you intend to cast or spider rig or troll then you might want a mid handle rod and a spinning reel. I love my SHSS rear seat and Solo reels in 10' for the above purposes. I have 2 of them. It's the only way my wife will fish.

    I do my jigging off docks and along walls, since I don't have a boat.
    I use a 2' and a 4' ice rod with a very fast tip and an Eagle Claw inline ice reel that has both a drag and free spool. You can't cast this setup and it works just fine for jigging from a stable platform, and you can get right in tight with it, too; so I can work the edge of the dock shadow or tight along a shadowing wall. When the line, the jig head and the tail are balanced that gives the sweetest float down. Just like on the ice I do not want the jig to spin, and so the inline ice reel works very well and runs maybe $30. They didn't put out the fishing docks here on the Minneapolis Park lakes this year; so my jigging isn't happening much this summer.
