That's a tough bill to fill. What do you consider cheap? In the $20-$25 range, Cypress Creek rods are cheap and work fine for pulling jigs. They would work fine for pushing jigs. They are way better than Pinnacle Limit rods, IMO. They are fiberglass, so they are a little heavy. I'm not sure they make a 14' rod.

I have been using 2-16' Jenko Spider Troll rods since this spring and love them. I just bought 2-14's and 2-12's to go with them. They are graphite and much lighter. I will use them primarily for pushing and pulling jigs.

Cheap rods ain't good and good rods ain't cheap. Get you some Southern Crappie rods from Ed Duke, you won't regret it.

In the $40 range I have 2 12’ lews but wanted to go to 14’ to push.

I have four 14" Extra Heavy Duty 2 Ounce Southern Crappie rods. They are made for pushing up front. Ed Duke has them listed at $46.95 each. Can't beat them. Even use them for flounder fishing out front of my boat with heavy jigheads.

I got 8 14' foot Denalis I'd let go for 40 each, shipped, great rods just going to 16s

Southern Crappie rods are the best pulling,pushing or tite linning

They are great rods and Ed is one of the greatest people but that's a bold statement, come fish with me this fall on a windy day and you'll see a big difference.

You can't beat Southern Crappie rods. The absolute best feel of a rod as I've ever used. Especially the 14 and 16 ft. Not flimsy not bulky just perfect. Plus Ed is the best to deal with.
