whats your favorite rod for.shooting docks

[goshdangfeller]

I need a new shooter pole. What pole do you have that works the best for you. I was thinking 5'6" or 6' medium lite action one piece rod. I guess price matters, nothin over $40. I bought a shimano 5' 6" ultra light last year ($30) and I hated it. It's for sale.now.if interested. I would take $10 for it.

I bought a Berkley lighting rod 5'6" and it works great. I've also used the Berkley Cherry rods and the BnM Sharp Shooters and both worked great too!

[goshdangfeller]

Thanks I will look that up. Whats the price on the rod?

Only crappie rods I have ever used is BPS Micro lites. The 5 ' 6" lite action works good for shooting docks

I used the 6'6" berkeley cherrywood in a medium light. Have to order them from berkeley special, nobody carries the medium light.

[goshdangfeller]

Yeah that's what I've been noticing I can't find a medium light.

I use a Shakespear UL 5' from wally world, works good imo. also have a bill dance UL from bps that works good, it was ~$40 on sale this past summer

When you guys talk shooting rods are you saying that you'r bending the end over and (slingshot) shooting the dock or just casting/picthing with these rods.. I was with a guy this weekend that was pretty dang good at it.. He caught 4 to my 1 getting under those docks....He was using a B&M sharp shooter... I got a buch of ugly sticks i been trying before i spend the cash for somthing else....

[goshdangfeller]

Charley41 yes the good ol slingshot technique is pretty deadly this time of year. How much does a b&m sharp shooter cost?

[jimp]

bout $50 I think, + or -.
