Looking at buying pops and I a good vertical jigging spinning rod. I’m thinking an 8’ er. ACC, B&M, Pro Angler, Bonehead...... Or something else? What say the Crappie masters?

I use 8-9 foot B&M, I get them at Cabelas, they fit my budget, and I've had good service. I have broken two tips, but that was my fault, and for the price I wasnt that upset as if it had cost me $100 or more. One thing I remember is I'm only chasing fish that weigh less than 2 pounds,...mostly. jim

ACC all the way.
Andy just got his latest shipment in yesterday.
New 12 Footer Complete redesign weighing at 5.9 ounces. I ordered 2 of them.
A New 1 piece 5'6" rod. For shooting docks. I own several of the 2 piece and love them.
A new 2 piece 6'0" rod. I ordered 4 of them.
I think just about every size is in stock for the time being.
I already have The kids rod 5'0", several 5'6", I have 3 of the 6'6, a couple 7'6" and several 8 foot and 10 Foot rods.
Just adding to my collection.
Can't recommend them enough.

If you want to try the Pro Angler 8', Russ Bailey 8'. Wally Marshall 9' Speed Stick, Waterloos in 8', 8.5' and 10', Academy H2O 10' along with a couple others you could invite me and I could bring them all. Weather looks pretty good this weekend. Hint, hint.  I could probably even get my hands on a couple G-Rods in 8 and 10. >E

Unless you like using old rods for tomato stakes, I recommend buying Pro Angler rods. I fish PK and Fork and catch huge bass and stripers on 10 foot pro angler rods. I've seen them bend almost double with big fish on them and they just take it. Plus you can step on them and they don't break. Here's a nice crappie pole buster caught in a boat slip surrounded by cables. Just horsed him in with that Pro Angler rod. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/11/full-75490-31191-4_17_18_bass1.jpg)
