Thread: Pulling, pushing and spiderrigging poles?

I don't know if I'm coordinated enough to use a 10 foot long pole much less a 14 or 16. LOL I've already bought 4 10 footers. I guess I'll get 4 12's and try that, or are 10's and 12's too close in length to use pulling jigs?

Mitchell, I hope you can get back out on the water soon. You gotta show me how to do this spiderweb fishing.

Not if you don’t turn to fast.

I have several different rods but my favorite are my 12 foot southern pros. Light and sensitive with enough backbone to long line or spider rig. Also Ed Dukes is a great guy to do business with and he stands behind his product

Fur I started out using 14,11,and 8 on the front and yes they do get tangled from time to time. Has a lot to do with turning speed, length of line out and radius of your turn. After you do it a while you will get a feel for what works good. It doesn’t take much of a rod to pull with. No need to spend much $ just trying it out. Use what you have and if you like it then upgrade a bit. The 11 footers I still use are B’nM West Point crappie rods, caught them on sale for $4 each several years ago. Now I wouldn’t jig, spider rig or anything else with them but to pull a couple jigs they work fine.

I like my Bnm. But the new Jenko’s is my favorite now .
