$13.00 dollars brings the cost per pound down significantly.. As my wife sorta sarcastically says these are the best $20.00 a pound crappie fillets I ever ate.

My wife says that too. They were $55.00 a pound when I had my boats. Now, when I can get her to go bank fishing with me they are down to a more reasonable price. The cost of my truck, gas, rods and reels, tackle boxes full of stuff, outerwear clothing, western hats and crappie buckles, jig tying supplies, soft bait molds, plastics and supplies, hand tied jig tying time, time spent on You Tube for research, Time spent on the computer on crappie dot com,......dang it. Those crappies are not $20.00 a pound but over $100.00 a pound. You have to believe that to me they are priceless.

There is a lot of truth right there! I had to read the post as the term “cheapskate” certainly does apply around here, although I would prefer “frugal”!

I mean you can catch them with a stick and string anything beyond that is luxury. I'm sure $13 combo is way better than some other countries use to catch fish.

My “pop” used to use a stick and cotton line and a grasshopper and hammer well with it .
But all kidding aside that set up is balanced well and has nice action and bet money it will hang with expensive stuff in longevity IF ....he don’t break it first ,,,,,
