snooterfish Posted June 23, 2007 Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 Guys in your opnion, what would be a good rod to buy or build for downrigging. I want something for Walleye and Crappie and a:eek: moderate price tag. snooterfish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smirkplug Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I don't know how to downrigger for crappie but, i like old garage sale parabolic fiberglass rods. Their bend works even with a cannonball, and i use braded line with no stretch to it and let the whippiness of the rod play the fish, good luck.

Swede Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 i´d suggest a rod 8-9 ft in length 8-15 lbs rated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
