    Default Trolling Poles Question


    I'm looking to buy 8 new trolling poles. 14ft. I like the B n M Pro Staff but I'm no pro myself. Anybody have any suggestions and places to buy from? I'm aware of Bass Pro but don't know of any other places. Whats everyone suggest???

    I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on some 14' poles also. I have 4 12' pro staffs and I love them for pulling cranks. They are strong poles. I want to start spider rigging and I think I'm going to go with the Capps & Colemans for more sensitivity, would love to hear more on what everyone thinks.

    Been looking a lot and I think Grizzly Jig has about the best deal going.

    PST are a really good all around pole. Some prefer softer more sensitive tip. I have a set of 14 Southern Crappie rods I really like , a set of PST and a set of 12 ft Pinnacal Limit poles. Use them all at different times. The Capps and Coleman have a big following but a learning curve comes with the softer tip. Also the BGJP is a very good trolling pole with sensitive tip. All your B and M poles can be purchased from Grizzly jig for best pricing. Take a look at the southern crappie rods and their pricing.

    I trust my BnM's I have a set of PST's for cranking and a set of BGJP's for spider rigging. They all have their place. Mixing actions has not worked well at all for us.

    I recently got a set of BGJPs in the 16 footer, really like them so far. Kinda along the lines of the Caps/Coleman's but cheaper.
    If they made a Pinnacle Limit in a 14 or 16 that's most likely what I would be feshing, still got my 12s.

    I have 12 BnM pst14 and Monks was the cheapest by far and I looked everywhere.
