Best place to Buy mutible Cranking rods and reels ?

I know that I'm fixing to spend some money if I were to buy the rods and reels at the same time ( 8 ) each for cranking . I guess I want counter type reels and rods with a MH action . I'm not kennel blind so the best brand is the important thing . I do like cork handles but not a must have . Do any of you know where you can buy 8 rods at one time at some kind of discount and 8 reels the same way . I do have a question as to what length rods I need . Some people stagger there lengths and others stay with one length . Any thoughts would be appreciated . I have found 1 rod here 1 rod there in local stores so I'm sure I'll have to go to the internet . Somebody on here has a idea what to do I know . Thanks

Grizzly Jig, has everything you need in one spot.

Reels are usually cheaper here

If you plan on pulling off the sides directly behind the boat then stagger your rods, 16,12,8 etc. if you plan on using planer boards then use all the same length that are short enough where you can remove the board without having to stand up and reach for it.

Received my 8 medium Opti Tackle planers yesterday. Nice being on their Pro Staff.

I don't think you're going to find a one place has the best price on BOTH rods and reels. I've bought rods from Grizzly Jig and Monks Crappie at different times because of price and shipping. So far my favorite line counter reel is the Diawa Accudepth and I've bought them at different places as well. But I looked at the link above Franks Great Outdoors and thought he had the best price on the 47LCB that I use. I know several guys who use the cheaper Okuma's but I didn't care for them as much as the Diawa's I also have some of the Cabelas Depthmaster line counter reels, they're ok, but I won't buy any more of them, too many problems with the line counter reset button. I also agree that it depends on how you're going to troll cranks as to whether you want staggered lengths of rods or all the same length. Whether you're going to pull them off the sides or back of the boat or going to push them off of the front. I've done it all three ways, but mainly pull off the back of the boat so I have 8's, 10's, 12's and 14 ft rods. I have some cheaper Pinnacles that I've gotten by with for several years but I think the handle is too short from the reel to the end of the handle. The BnM PST's are longer and fit my holders better. I will say go ahead and buy good stuff and don't do like I did and try and get by as cheap as possible, because it will ultimately cost you more in the long run than getting the right stuff the first time.

I agree, if I can't fish with the Diawa linecounters I just use metered line, haven't found another linecounter I care for.

I need to get on a pro staff everyone Is on one. Someone give me some pointers.
