    Default Thinking about getting some new jig poles.


    Im thinking of getting a new jig pole and I was wondering what kind you guys like to use. Right now I use a Wally Marshall 10ft. Universal series but think I like the BnMs better.

    I have a couple of B & M Jig poles and one WM Pro Series which I really like even though it's a little more on the light side, but it has 13 eyes and is made using IM 8 Graphite which is super sensitive.

    I like the B & M's just fine though. I also have one Pro Angler Rod 10' that I also like.

    I have a wally marsal that is really sensitive. I have a b&m also, but prefer the wally. If there is a more sensitive rod, I want one.

    I have 11 ft Buck's Graphite jig poles. Love 'em for hand held jigging and spiderrigging. I think I will buy a few 14 foot Capps/Coleman trolling rods for more distance away from the boat when spiderrigging 4 to 6 feet water.
    A word of advise... what ever brand you choose make sure that you can order extra tip sections. You will break some. Some of my BnM's are almost 20 years old!

    Right now I've got a 9' Shakespeare Sigma, so I checked "other", but having heard all the good things that folks have to say about B&M, my next one will be coming from them.

    my first jig pole was a B&M I bought in high school. I bought a wally marshal three years ago cause I just knew my old rod wasn't going to last forever but for some reason the first one in my hand when jig fishing is still ol' faithful. That rod is 18 years old and still catching fish- think I need to buy another just like it just in case!
