New Crappie rod

[outdoorsron]

Hello: Looking to get a new Crappie rod for jigging and dipping. What do you recommend ? Brand, length, action . Good Luck O - R

I just got a new BnM Duck Commander Jigging pole....11 ft. long rear seat double touch cork handle.....I love it.

I like a 8ft medium action rod for jigging and dipping. I can't recommend a brand because I use Wally Marshalls and B&M along with a few others. During the spawn I will often to to a 10ft rod for more reach.

G do you know how this pole compares to buck's best ultra-lite with bottom seat and touch system

I like the Ozark rear seat 10ft. BnM Sam Heaton or Bucks Best Ultra Light rear seat are good ones. Checked out the Wally Marshall Solo Rod at Grizzly Jig show and it's a nice feeling rod but I still like the Ozark best.

I know you asked another person, but the BBUL bottom seat was probably my favorite jigging rod. I did have one break about 18 inches in front of the grip on a hookset. I can't say if it was my fault or a defect in the rod, however, they are they most sensitive, lightest, and well balanced jigging pole I've ever had in my hand. I have an 11ft now. The one that broke was a 12ft. I have other quality jigging rods, but the one that finds my hand the most is the BBUL.

I've had a few myself and the bbul 11 ft. is my favorite also. I was wondering if the duck commander was as good or just a copy.

I like the feel and balance of the Duck Commander double touch jig pole better than my Sam Heaton or my Ozark. The Ozark is great though fishing in heavy brush because you can punch a hung jig off with it and not worry about the tip.

I've got a 10' Sam Heaton, an 11' Ozark with rear reel seat, and a 12' Bucks Best Ultra light. I love them all! The 12' BBUL is by far the lightest, most sensative rod I've held. If you are fishing heavy brush you may want something with a little more backbone like the ozark or even the Sam Heaton. The best multi-purpose rod I believe is the 10' Sam Heaton. If I had to pick one that'd be my pick. I can fish deep and utilize the reel better than with the rear reel seat, it's sensative, it's light enough, and it's been tough!

I like a more firm rod with some backbone and I have fished with everything listed above except the bucks and my favorite is Ozark Rod in 8 and 10 ft. Very firm back to pull fish out of the brush but by far the best feel of the bunch. If you get one and don't like it let me know, I will buy it from you.
