    Default Southern rods!


    Just got off the phone with Ed. 3 - 16 foot poles 155.85 shipping included. Shipping is just 15.00 for 1 rod or 8. Going to wait till I go to Grizzly show tomorrow to order them. But I doubt Grizzly will have a better deal.
    Biggest crappie to date is 3 lb 9 oz at grenada in 1988. Still hangs on my wall.

    Grizzly doesn't carry them. In fact, I don't think Southern sells at any retailers.

    He said he don't market them to keep cost down. I'm just going to see what kind of price the Ozarks are going to be at grizzly sale tomorrow.

    Correct me if I'm wrong but you won't be comparing apples to apples. Ozarks are fiberglass and Southern Crappie are a mixture of kevlar and carbon fiber. Southern Crappie are lighter and tougher.
    Tell'em I'll be there.

    Still not apples to apples, had the 14 Ozark side by side to the Southern Crappie and the southern Crappie is lighter, stouter, and has a better tip, throw cheaper in the mix and you cant go wrong. Be sure you pick up your Engle with the money you save!! Hope yall are having a good trip.
