new to board

[flyfisher2]

hello my name is mark. it really is a pleasure being part of the crappie family. i hope to learn alot from some of the veterans and also lend some advice to some that may be just starting out. if anybody could give some advice on a fishing rod just for crappie fishing i would really appreciate the help. i fish with a noodle rod now and i think i could do much better with a new rod . thank you mark

Do you have a price range and what length rod do you have in mind?

[flyfisher2]

price not really a factor, but length i would like something in the 7' length range

[chaunc]

I have 2 in mind. wally marshall 7ft ul or st Croix preimere 7ft lite action. I have both and enjoy using both.

[flyfisher2]

Thanks chauncy . Do you think a 7 foot is a smart choice or should I go a little longer. I just want something that I can cast a small jig and to also fell the very light bites. Thanks again Mark

[flyfisher2]

I am from the south western part of pa . i am about 30 minutes north of pittsburgh . i may be interested in a fly rod , it all depends what you have and how much $$$. but right now i am really looking for a crappie rod

I was born and raised in Washington Co but live in Cumberland co. My question was are you looking for a crappie flyrod. I am not selling any. I enjoy my flyfishing for panfish as well as trout and steelhead.
