BGJP's vs Capps and Coleman's

[BigRiverMarine]

I've got a set of Capps and Coleman 16' poles, but just bought a new set of the 16' BGJP's. I can't wait to try them side by side, but I figured some of you guys had been there, done that already.

Post your results if you did the research. Curiosity is killin me!! I'm looking for the Pros and Cons of each pole.

["G"]

I asked Ronnie Capps which did he like the best and he likes the BGJPs the best. I have the C and Cs and I like them the best. Its just a matter of preferance everybody is different

the BGJP will be more like your Ozarks.
C and C I like the best same as G

The C & Cs are more flexable. They are tough though. I've caught several 8-10 pound blue cats on them over at Eagle Lake and they held up real good

Hard to go wrong with either set. Bill, I thought you were an Ozark man, what changed your mind?

[Gomer Snerd]

Aw...he'll just hang on to those 27 ozarks and get 40-11 C&Cs and a couple of dozen B&Ms. Heard it said time and again..."You just can't hide money".

If anyone is looking to buy some new rods give these a try! https://www.facebook.com/SouthernCrappieRods
I do not own any of these rods I use the Wally Marshall Tightline Special but I have used these and they are very nice Spider Rigging rods they are made of kevlar and are priced good! The 14' are 39.95 I bought 4 as donations for door prizes to the KY Lake Shindig Last week! Wiskers from the KY board uses these rods and I fished with him in the spring and last week these are nice rods!

The bonus money at the MCC!!!

I didn't change my mind, I just like trying new stuff. I still think the Ozarks are the best ALL AROUND rod out there, and I still have a full set of 16'ers AND 14'ers. You can Push Cranks with up to 4oz. weight, Power Troll jigs, Long Line, Pull Cranks, or Spider Rig really well and see the light bite with the soft tip section too!!!!!

With the C and C's or BGJP's its spider rig only, for the most part!!!

I caught a nice Hybrid with my C and C's at the Rez. I just wonder why Ronnie and Steve, Warren Cotton, Driscoll, Harrison, and Brad Taylor, just mention a few of the more successful crappie pros around this area use the BGJP's? I bet they think they get a better catch ratio with em!!!! Heck, they can get which ever ones they want----FREE!!!!! Must be Some reason for them picking the BGJP's!!!!!!
