    Use what you got.....your not pulling any weight....just a jig tossed out about 30-35 ft. behind the boat. slow down to go deep....speed up to go shallow.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    Just short on a few lengths . Am sure Grizzly has some that will not be much and maybe one of several thousand might have used some .

    Check with Monks Crappie. I bought some HT Panfish specials and theyre perfect for longlining. $22 a pop or something like that. I have 8s 10s and 12s

    I’m my opinion the reel is more important than the rod

    I just round up my spinning rods in UL to med light action. My Southern Crappie Rods from 6 foot to 14 foot all get in on the act. Standard action.
