Thread: Rod length for livescope

Disclaimer I am no expert at livescoping but I have gotten a lot better In 3 months I started out using my same 12 ft Jigpole then switched to a 14 ft pst which is heavy as heck I bought a Jenko lucky 13 pole about a month ago and I won’t use nothing but that Jenko it’s lite and will handle any crappie u want it too and I sling all them in the boat

I second the Jenko Lucky 13 .
I fish the BnM Stick, Bone Stix spiral 13 , Jenko T X13 and the Lucky 13........ Lucky 13 is a great balance between to much rod and not enough rod.

How do you like the Bone Stix spiral???

It fishing good but like the others in its class it heavy. I fish braid and it seems to wrap the tip of the rod very easy .

im very new to using it, but i have 3 rods i use. ACC Crappiestix 12ft to jig out to 10-15ft. a 16ft off brand light pole if they are skiddish or further away and a 5'9" spin casting to jig directly underneath. I have used the really short one much more in deeper water than i would have thought.

12 ft ACC is what I use and my friend Ryan uses an 11 ft.

If you are accurate with casting, why not go with a 5 foot rod? Its a lot less weight on your arms for a day of fishing and you can cast an 1/8 jig a long way equipped with a spinning reel.
