Back to the basics-- I forgot how much fun it is.

I have spent thousands on crappie equipment, sonars, pole holders, Ect. I keep 21 poles on my boat. I spyder fish, long line troll, crank baits ~& jigs. I have spent thousands on equipment and on and on. In the end, I catch more fish & bigger fish, jigging with one pole straight down. I have caught thousands with all the methods, but in the end, give me one pole & the THUMP!

My favorite hands down... Love to dip a jig into any and everything

Yep. Thanks for sharing. My preference is single-pole cast and retrieve, vertical fishing, and flipping.

Spaceman- I love casting for them, today they wanted no movement. Up and down only.

Trypman1: I am glad to hear today you found what worked. I like your one pole preference and wholly like your reference to "back to basics". Something fun and rewarding about one-on-one fishing. I use my 3 preferred techniques until the fish tell me what they want. Congrats.

Thanks my friends.

Poles are like Kardashian sisters: one is all a man can handle.

I am a fan of one rod myself , very rarely I will hold one in each hand though ...
.......so that's the extent of my multiple rod techniques.......

Your not the only one!!! I've done the same thing, now my long rod for trolling and for sprider rigging have been collecting dust for 7 years or more, about 30 of them, vertical jigging and shooting docks is all I do. Catch a lot more fish now than I ever did with 8 rods!

Roger - I now use my spider rig mount on the bow to hold rods with different baits so I can do a quick switch when single pole flipping, casting, and vertical jigging laydowns and structure.
