I honestly have around 125 rod/reel setups. 90% of it is for panfish/crappie. Only paid full price for maybe 5% of them. A few years ago I vowed not to buy anymore setups regardless of how cheap they are. I stuck to my promise until today. 1 8ft Wally Marshall signature, 1 BnM 8ft Bucks Classic, 1 Bass Pro 7ft Crappie Maxx, 1 BnM 6.5 Sharp Shooter all the whopping price of $10.81. I would love to say I am shame for folding but I would be lying like a politician Pray for your brother.
