Thread: Best Crappie Rod

Check out the SouthernCrappie line of rods. He has several sizes. I fish his trolling poles and they are tough as nails and very sensitive. Big plus is Kevlar tips and pricing is more than competitive.

If it's just the tip eye guide that is missing the insert ... you can buy replacement tips & the glue in kits and replace that tip, yourself.

If it's the whole upper section that they sent you, that won't fit the handle end .... just remove both tip eyes and swap them out.

If you like BnM products, and you're looking for another 9-10ft rod for bobber/slip float fishing and vertical jigging ... my suggestion would be to consider BnM's Float/Fly rods : https://www.bnmpoles.com/p-45-tennes...t-and-fly.aspx

*Note : I was a field tester for BnM, on their first Float/Fly rod (8' with the balance weights in the handle) ... the Duckworth FnF rod. I love the rod for it's intended purpose, but if I were buying one today, it would be the 9 or 10ft model because of the longer handle.

The one in your hand. As is typical for a thread like this we all list our favorites. To be honest, the Crappie don't care. Man has been catching Crappie with hook and line for a long time, cane poles, and rods up to several hundred bucks. Take your pick and go fishing.

Thanks for your input. Has anyone used the Mr Crappie 12'?

I went to Florida this past winter and found vexan rods the have a 12 ft and and 8ft model. 12 foot ismkinda of heavy but still works on a light jig and will handle a big cat or a bass including an 18" peacock bass that hit crappie jig at boat. Impairmthat rod with Shinkansen sienna 2500. The Edith foot rod is lighter goes with sienna 1000 good for jigging and slip bobber. I also like b n m bucks ultra light the blue blank with cork handle 8'ft with 1000 sienna and 10 ft with 2500 sienna

The best crappie rod is the one your buddy is catching them on.in your boat lol
