What type of reel for jig poles?

[Michael D]

I just got 4 B'n'M Buck's Graphite Jig Poles...these are the redesigned ones with the new stainless steel guides. I was just was wondering what type of reel that any you are using with these rods? Thanks for any info!

I dont know if this is what you want, but there was an ad in this forums swap-meet/classified section. Doc Crappie is the poster ,He had several small bait caster style reels for the jigging pole. I hope this helps you out!

Shimano makes the best reels in my opinion. I'd use a medium sized spinning reel on those rods. Not the smallest size, usuallly the next bigger size works great. Shimano's are more expensive, but you get what you pay for.

One of then new reels I tried is the real small underspin that shakespeare makes. They are very reasonably priced and is working great for me. They arent built like the high dollar reels, so you may not get 10+ years of use out of it, but for the price you can afford to replace it when need be.

For a jig pole, anything that is light weight and holds line will suffice. I use the $5 plastic reels.

I still have shimano reels from 20 years ago that I still use and I fish them hard very good quality and good bearings.
