    Default I have an 18' crappie rig


    I found a pole/reel that I bought a few years ago. It's a Bass Pro Shop crappie combo that is 18' long, a 3-piece rod. My gosh. It still had the sticker on it -- on sale for $50. It's kind of like a fly reel on it. I am not sure but seem to recall that I fished with it and it was too long. At that time, I was fishing an oxbow lake and a 14 foot pole was nice but we were always wishing for longer to get to the scattered sticks in the water.

    I wonder if anyone has ever found that an 18' rod could work! It might tire you out holding that thing. It's fiberglass and seems light enough, but, hmmm.

    18' rods are definitely on the market today mainly for trolling. Try it for jigging and see if it works for ya.

    I wouldn't want to hold an 18 all day. Especially, if it were fiberglass. They are ok for pushing,but just cumbersome and hard to store.
