The Stick

[Ketchn]

I have a medium 7 foot 2 pc. Berkley Cherrywood HD , is it a heavy rod you might ask with a long cork handle , yes pretty much so compared to other crappie "sticks" . Is it just for crappie you might ask , no clue would be my answer .
It has been in my arsenal for a long time and the Berkley emblem is half gone . I carry it when I need a rod that can handle slinging larger fish and will still fit in a small area for travel . It has an old Shimano on it at this time and 8 lb Vicious clear mono .
Complete with metal eyelets and no ceramic inserts and pretty much just a beast of a rod if you want to man handle fish . Now mind you I hear backbone this and sensitivity that and on and on about other "sticks" , but to be sure it gets the job done well in many situations .
Not pricey was the rod and the reel and are likely in the 50 range as a combo and true work horse quality stuff . So keep in mind this about that , you don't have to spend large dollars to sling lots of crappie .
This particular specimen has seen multiple thousands of crappie in it's hanging around with me over the years and to be very sure of this .......
It will still hold it's own against the high end 7 footers in a race to see who slings the bestest .....
KABOOM is the word ya"ll
