Just getting into spider rigging lookn to get some 14fters didn't know if anyone had any for sale or was upgrading let me know what you got thanks
if you haven't bought the 14fters I would go for the 16fters. Reason as soon as you get hooked on spider rigging you will want to sell the 14"s for 16's. Just saying!
Good fishing buddy
Cookie, that an opinion, I like the 14s, that also is an opinion, boat size makes a big difference too.
20ft war eagle ? Witch would be better ? 16 or 14 ?
It's all in what you get use to. I fish 14s but want 16s. 16s are going to be heavier to fish with but think once you get use to them it would be fine. I'm fishing out of a 17ft war eagle I think the longer poles would help get baits out in front of boat a little better and be able to reach the spooky fish. Just my 2cents
Just when I decided to go with 14's this post shows up. What's a guy to do?
I have a 19 ft center console and fish 14's...16 ft is an awful lot of rod to mess with! ive had no problem catching fish pushing in 4-5 ft of water.
I'm just not sure because I'm set further back from the front of boat just the way war eagles are setup
Have fished both for many years, and 16's do get heavy. We fish around 15 tourneys a year and almost always go with the 14's. Most of the pros do favor longer rods. Clear water in one place you would want longer rods.
Makes sense to me Cray. I can always add a couple 16's later if I get along with the 14's. I do fish alone a lot. Thanks.
Well went and bought 8 16ft b&m pro staff trolling rods thanks guys for input
If something happens and you don't like them I got some 14 Capps and Coleman's I would do some trading with you.
Not a fan of the PST's. To heavy and I don't troll with more than an ounce of weight. If you troll with heavy weights, then you got the right ones. If you dont, you should've went with the BGJP's. Even the pros use BGJP's most of the time.
I looked at Ozarks ,psts and bgjps and like the psts I couldn't tell to much in weight
I rig with jig poles also. The trolling rods are a little more stiff on the tip. I prefer the jig poles when the bite is soft. I use 12 and 14 foot poles. 16 foot poles are a lot to handle even transporting to and from the water. Just my opinion but everybody to his own.
