There are a lot better options out there and I for one don't have to own a PST, matter fact if someone will take this last one I have off my hands I wont have any more, by the way, it needs a tip section.:banghead
And dont tell me I am hard on my equipment cause that just aint so.
Just hard to talk about a rod that i have been using for 6 years and havent broke nothing on it..... You know the ole sayn... If it aint broke dont fix it :)Quote:

His rods now are double that. I would still say pst they push 3 oz weights good and pull up double white bass you can't beat that. So Rees you to hard on your rods thats what I was told also. It's just a bad rod tip production run.
John. ...you're just hard on you're equipment. Haha. U opened that door
:Rofl I was told the same straight from B&M when I broke a brand new one, they replaced it and I sold it. I use the BGJPs and some of the others for single poling but just don't want to worry about tips all the time. I was also told that I HAD to use a net when landing a fish, they weren't built to lift the fish in the boat, the fish in question I was supposed to use a net on was a 10 inch Tibby that might have weighted a half pound.
I'm done with my rant on the PSTs, you like use em, they are light, now someone get this 14 footer so I can be rid of it.
I get a deal on the Crappiemax Tight Line Specials from Bass Pro. That's what I'm using now to power troll and pull cranks. I've used some of the Wally's Tight Line Specials from Bass Pro for years on the Toon, and they hold up better than the rest I've tried for pulling cranks with. Ain't much of a Spider Riggin pole tho. They're way to stiff IMO.
I like most of the BnM poles, and have 2-3 different sets, but the only pole they make that I've never used is the PST's, so I don't know jack about those.
I like the Ozarks Really well, but the customer service is slow, and basically lacking (if it breaks, you bought it). Customer Service is where BnM shines!!!!!!!
I use a mix of PST's and old tightline specials.... Haven't had a problem with either.
