I broke an 11 feet ACC last week on a hook set on a decent fish, broke 2 feet from the handle, not happy about it either. Not the first ACC that has broke either.

Last year my Jenko 10 feet rod broke 3 inches from the tip.

I have some old Wally Marshall rods I have used for many years that have never broke.

The newer rods may be more sensitive and I like them but not as durable IMO.

My biggest is 2.78, A few years ago , 2lb crappie were very plentiful in Lake Palestine. Now not so much.
I have heard of 3lb crappie since I moved to East Texas in 1982, but have yet to see one in person. Maybe some day.

We used to could catch a couple 2 pounders in the summer on Palestine. Now it's hard to catch a couple in winter or spring when they're bigger! I noticed the decline pre livescope. I know they're all cyclical so who knows. It's still an awesome lake and the most versatile place I fish! thumb
