I don’t think I want to left my wife read this post cause I’ll be grounded for life!

Say what you will and laugh all you desire. My cheapskate rod has caught many a fishy thing.

I upgraded from a sassafras cane pole to a metal zebco 33 with a rod so stiff you could not break it in car door....... and just to mention I had to run the cows out the pond two out of three times where I fished. Bait was caught or dug on site (cattle), and sure caught a lot of fish in those plain and simple days.

Been using these quite some time as I considered them disposable so when I flipped my kayak I didn't lose a ton of money!

Had several of those Zebco 202's back in the day. They had a distinct noise when they were being reeled in.

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.

And they’re worth all that, and more. Time occupied in a constructive manner. Thoughts directed the same way. Friends made and shared with. And what else are ya gonna do with all that time and money anyway. Probably sumthin that will get mama lookin at ya sideways.

An opportunity to squander the kid’s inheritance! Time on the water is priceless, especially as we get older!

$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.

the going price last time I checked on crappie was 100 bucks for 5 lbs of fillets out of Canada , just saying .....

shake my spear makes a few right nice rods and reels for cheap
the 7 foot crappie rod is quite the hammer stick in the right hands for sure
balanced pretty well , a bit of back bone and fairly sensitive
and they ACTUALLY have a cork handle for around 20 bucks
laugh it up , but some other fella is holding 300 bucks worth in his hand and not ketchn , and that there other fella is just smoking fish with one , it might not be near as humorous

I’ve tried for a year and haven’t been able to get my hands on the 7’ light micro series rod. Always sold out.
