Early season action with some new bnm rods.

[NJcrappie]

Buddy and myself hit up a favorite south jersey lake for some early season float and jig fishing. I recently bought the 7' sam heaton, 6.5" bnm ultralight crappie rod and the 7'6" crappie wizard. All three offered a differnent action and purpose. I didn't love the 6.5" "ultralight" was a little stiff and the top half kept twisting and coming off when casting. The heaton has a nice action and a nice backbone and the wizard is an excellent casting rod and is a joy to use with a float and jig.
Water temps were 52-54. All fish were caught in 6 feet of water.
