i was wondering what kind of rods everybody else uses for casting and retreiving and veritcal jigging. I like my 6'0 falcon ultralight for casting and a 12 bnm jig pole for vertical jigging.

I got "several" of weezer's (crappie wizards) rods and like them a bunch. B&M is supposed to be redoing them but don't know when.
thanks wvspec
I just purchased two to Richards signature series rods made by B&M, (12 footers) Haven't been able to try them out yet, but they are the same quality as his older ones. Great rod's!!!
I can vouch for .... Sam Heaton Sig Series 7' & two Duckworth FnF 8' (originals) are my "casting" rods ;)Quote:

I have a couple of Falcon rods as well and like them just fine, but my favorite for tight lining is an Avid St. Croix 7' Med. Lt. I have a couple of B & M Ultimate 10' jigging poles I troll with and a Wally Marshal Pro Series 10' on it's way.
Since I use a lot of Power Pro line I am getting more and more happy with the 10' poles since they have a lot of give when fighting the fish. The long bend helps forgive the no stretch line.
Every pole tha I have is B&M. I use an 11 foot jig pole most of the time, but when fishing in thick brush, i use a 10 foot ultimate. it has more backbone and gets bigger fish out before they can tangle me up. most of the time
I'm a caster, not a jigger. I have a bunch of light/UL spinning rods from 4.5' to 7.5'. I have Loomis, Fenwick, Quantum and Bass Pro models. Loomis is my favorite, but they all cast light jigs and fight fish well.
Have several Rapala 7 ft and 6'6 ft Xtreme Ultra Light spinning rods and very happy with them.
I like the Wally Marshall rods that I have,and I just got a Whuppin' Stick glass crappie rod to try out.
