I love to use my Bream Buster from B'n M. I really like to get some crickets and my bream buster cane pole and I am set for a great day of bluegill fishin'. Just as much fun a using a $100+ rod. They really put up a good fight on these little poles, but these are some tough pole too, so don't let their sizes fool you. I have caught some nice crappie with the little jewel.
