    Default B n' M slow troller rods


    anybody ever used the 20 footers? how heavy are they. I'm thinking of buying a couple, but don't want to waste the money if they are really heavy.

    I have a 13 footer and that sucker is heavy compared to my Wally Marshall and other BnM rods. If weight is an issue, then go a different route. But for a cheap spread, go for it.CF

    Default 20 Ft Slow Troller

    WHEN I HAD A 24 FT PONTOON BOAT, I USED SOME OF THE 20 FT SLOW TROLLERS. THE 10, 13, 16, AND 20 FT POLES MAKES A WIDE "SPREAD".

    I DO NOT KNOW OF ANY 20 FT POLES THAT ARE LIGHT WEIGHT. WEIGHT SHOULD NOT BE A FACTOR IF YOU ARE USING ROD HOLDERS.

    THE 20 FT POLE WILL NOT FIT IN A DRIFTMASTER LIL PRO ROD HOLDER. A PRO MODEL IS NECESSARY TO ACCOMODATE THE BUTT SIZE.

    THESE POLES ARE TOO HEAVY FOR JIGGING OR HOLDING IN YOUR HANDS ALL DAY.

    Save your money the you might try the Wally Marshal 18' Titeline Special you could stand to hold it for a day maby!!! Don't get me wrong I have used the 20' pro trollers on Reelfoot when the crappie are shallow in the spring and they worked great. Just my thoughts.
