Anyone use these Rods
Have any of you used these rods before? HT Jiggin' Stik
I am looking for some 12 foot rods to troll with. I can't decide what I want I am looking at bnm pro staff trollers, bnm capps and coleman, wally marshall tightline special rods, and also the ones above. I have also looked at the crappie wizard poles. I have used those and liked them but the price has gone up on them. I am trying to find the best price for a good pole I can. The heaviest weight I troll with is an ounce and the lightest a 1/16th. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I wanting to buy 8 of them so I want to make sure I get something that will work and last. Thanks for all the help.

Looks like the distance between the handle and the reel seat is a little too long for trolling/spider rigging IMO. I'm sure it's an excellent rod though.

My biggest concern is the advertisement's statement about the tip being "ultra sensitive". It may be thin, and possibly not built for handling 1oz weights. It is advertised as a "jiggin stik" ... not a trolling rod

Wally Marshall tightline specials on sale Bass Pro shop 29.50, They have a one year warranty against defects hard to beat.

For that range of weights the best rod would be the BnM Pro Staff. The Tightlines are really made more for crankbaits and would be too stiff for the 1/16 oz and the Capps and Colemans are great for light jigs but way too light for the one oz wts. I have 6-8 each of all these rods and have learned from experience that they all have a unique function. The Pro Staffs are real hard to beat for an all-around trolling rod.....you can't go wrong with them.

Thanks for the input guys. I am starting to shy away from the jiggin stik. I want a rod that will be easy to get tip sections for just in case I do break one trolling. I wondered about the handle on the ones above and figured I would have to use electrical tape to hold the reel in place once I had it positioned where I wanted it.
Can someone show me online where bps has the wally marshall tight lines for 29.50?

I've got two panfish specials, a ten and a twelve. It was labeled twelve, but I see that the eleven is the longest they have offered on that website. Anyhow, I like them pretty good. The ten footer was my go-to for one-jig vert., and used the twelve along with a bnm twelve for two-pole trolling(one-handed). I would guess the ten might be a little light for what you want to do, but the twelve is a little stouter. Broke one tip on the ten footer, and it was replaced.(runnin in chop and anchor got on it)
