Good Pole? Good Price?

[bulldog007]

Hello I bought 5 B&M Bucks poles and was wondering if these were good poles for the price. I got 2 12' , 2 11' , and 1 10' at a cost of $157.50 Did I do ok or get burnt? Also, are these good poles that should last awhile? Thanks in advance for the input.

Naw...I don't think you got burnt. If you avg. it out you paid $31.00 a pole. Not too bad. I bought (4) WM trolling rods (2) 16" and (2) 14" for $175.00 w/ shipping.

Wait until Dec. or Jan. BP usually has wms poles for under 30.00 a pole. Got some last year for about 26.00.

I bought B&M Bucks Jig Poles....two 12's, two 11's, two 10's, and two 8's all for $72.00 plus tax at Wal-Marts clearance sale.

Kind of depends on which models you got as there are several Buck's poles. I know the ones I have I paid like $49 each for the 10' Buck's Ultimate and now they are $69 at Cabela's so it makes a lot of difference asa to which ones you bought. Here are some you can look at to see. Notice the B'n'M Buck's Graphite Jig Poles are 32.99 to 48.99 and the Ultimate are $41.99 to 69.99. You can see there is a wide range in prices with the Black Widow one of the cheaper rods at $5.99 to 12.88.

I got the ones that are 96% graphite.

Depends on which ones they are... you would have to look at whats printed on the rod to be able to price compare..... I use the B&M BBUL's (Buck's Best UltraLite) and I have 2 of the 11' and 2 of the 12's and I think I done ok when I spent around $150 for them.

Best pole deal I've seen in a year is Gander Mountains IM8 ultralight 7ft. $50 and every bit as good as rods that sell for $120 plus. I have 2 and love em.
