Haven’t crappie fished in years and went on a guided trip last week with neighbors on Toledo Bend and had a blast. Looking for a spinning rod or a spinning rod combo. I want a 6’6 or 7’ one piece rod. Any suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.

I've been using a St. Croix premiere spinning rod for years. It was recommended by Guy Skinner on here years ago. It is a 7' Med-Light with Fast action tip. I like it cause it has good back bone and sensitivity.

Your really limiting your options with a 1 piece rod.

Can't go wrong with the St. Croix. But, if that's more than you want to spend, I picked up a couple of the new Lew's Speed Shooters at Academy. Got a 6'6" and a 7' with their smaller spinning reels to go with them. Nice little rods. Took the 7" to Beaver's Bend a couple of weeks ago and landed a 20" rainbow on it.

Both are 1 piece rods.

When in doubt, set the hook.

I know you were wanting a one piece,but something to consider is a 7.6 or 8’ ACC rod. Both are 2 piece but you won’t regret it either.

Depends on how much you want to spend.
