Hello,
I am new to serious crappie and bream fishing and need to get some good tackle. I have several ultralite outfits so I don't need those but need something for vertical fishing. I have a $150 to spend. Help me select my tackle. Everything from a good pole, reel, jigs, hooks, weights, corks....the hold thing.

Speaking of poles and reels. Do most serious fishermen put reels on their poles or just tie the line to the tip? Also, what length pole is best?

Thanks for taking time to reply and help me spend my money.

Charlie
