I did buy a few Bandit 300's and even a few 200's. Just trying to jump start the economy.:D

Surplus City in Clinton has (4) 12's, (3) 14's, (4) 16's. Not that I noticed

Sly, I'm just trying to learn from this "pulling cranks 101", thread. I appreciate all the responses from folks on this forum who have tried to help and to fine-tune many of the responses. I'm still re-reading this thread daily, trying to pick up something that I've missed. I can't buy all the equipment and other gear that folks have suggested but I'm working on it. I have made a list of the most popular responses. I've even called manufacturers for conformation of some reports of their equipment. Truth be known, I'm probably trying to do too much too fast.

Bear, I don't know if I can handle anything over a 12'er.

ummm.... you may have become wide open for a barrage of one liners.

The 12 foot pro staff trolling rods at Surplus City are 49 dollars and some change. I'm gone for a bit now!
