Get you a set of southern crappie 14 ft rods and never look back. Toughest rod out there. Light weight and cheaper than any of the really hyped rods. Get the 143 not the 143t which is for heavier weights. Your mostly going to be fishing 1/2 oz or lighter weights and that’s what they are designed for. I have them and pst and Denali, have fished ozark and others and they are still my go to rod.
