    Yeah. I found it when trying to find last minute Christmas presents. Are you still using them? Did you get any new ones? Would you buy them again?

    Yeah, I've still got them but haven't used them in a couple of years. I wouldn't hesitate to buy more if I needed them.

    I use mostly 12' Bucks poles and either Zebco or similar cunder slung spincast. I like 8 lb test flourocabon mono. Mostly verticle jiggin around cover. I have landed Carp and Buffalo up to 13 lbs, Bass over 5 lbs, lots of Flathead and Channel Catfish over 5 lbs. Just remember what your fishing with and be patient, you will be suprized what you can do with light tackle. Sure love the light weight ans sensitivity of them.

    Went and bought four today. Two for gifts for my youth group and two for me. I love the feel of them. Gonna put four pound test line and small Shakespear open face reels on them.

    i got 4 of the 11 foot b'n'm bucks graphite jig poles and really like them, they are good for just about whatever you want to use them for, trolling, jigging, slip cork, etc. I broke one and took it back to W-mart and they gave me brand new one no questions asked. I can't complain and they were fairly inexpensive.

    Are you using something else or just not fishing? Just curious. Saw them at a wally world in a neighboring town for 39.95 and wonderd if they were worth the money. Need something for spidder-rigging and trolling both jigs, cranks.

    If your going to spider rig and pull cranks with the same poles....then I reccomend you leave the B'n'M Bucks poles alone and get you some B'n'M Pro Trollers. If your just going to spider rig....then the Bucks will be ok.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.
