I am a firm believer in Southern Crappie rods but it seems they have went up since the last time I bought a set. It will now be just as cheap for me to buy B and M's from either Bass Pro or Vann's in Brandon by the time I pay shipping cost. So my question is all I do is Spider Rig with light tackle...I never push heavy weight just a 1/16 oz jig with small split shot above it...Do i need the Black Uncle Buck or the Purple colored B and M which is a trolling series of the B and M. One of the things I loved about Southern Crappie was how sensitive the tip was...I can see the bite really good with them.
