But, I am very hard on equipment and order pole tips in bulk. I would imagine I go through around 10 to 12 tips a year. The strongest pole I had was the 14 ft pst by bnm. That pole may very well be the best trolling pole of all time.
Ok now I can't make up my mind again. I want to sprider rig with 12,14,and 16 foot poles using up to maybe 3 ozs. of weight (but less than that most of the time). So now what are y'alls suggestions?
