    Default Berkley C-Series Crappie Spinning Rod


    Anyone used this rod before? Walmart online has it in 10,11,12,14 ft lengths.
    Biggest crappie to date is 3 lb 9 oz at grenada in 1988. Still hangs on my wall.

    This is the description of the rod.

    From it's unique crappie scale pattern to the High Vis Tip, the Berkley C-Series Crappie Pro is specifically engineered for jigging and spider rigging techniques. Developed with a Solid Carbon Fiber Tip for added durability and sensitivity.

    Go by Academy in Tupelo and see if they have them. Both stores up in collerville and olive branch have them. Pretty decent looking rod for the money.

    Brad Chappel had a picture of the display announcing these new rods at ICast if I am not mistaken, he had good things to say about them. Be hard pressed to get me to give up my Southerns!!!

    I may be wrong about this, stand by the second part tho.

    I have picked a couple up and shook them. They seem heavier than my Southern Crappies and seem to have a pretty hippy tip which might mean really light tip. Here is a trick I use when checking a pole I might be interested in if I can put my hands on it. Take a good sized snap swivel and tie a short peice of line and add the amount of weight you would use most of the time. Hook it to tip guide then hold it out and see how it feels, then pop it up a couple of times and see how it reacts. I'm like Rees, wouldn't trade my Southern's for them.
