HI all. So I've been reading this forum for couple years now and am to the point where i cant help but ask a stupid question. How important is it to the "average" ice fisherman to have an expensive rod? I looked at Thorne Bros and they have rods for like $100 and up. I'm struggling on just how much better they are for the "average" Joe like me? What are the biggest benefits I would see? I have about 16 combos now ranging from $20/combo to $50/combo and to be honest cant see a ton of diff between most other than a couple nicer reels that I have. So there is the stupid questions for the day. Now unload with info and tell me if/why these expensive rods will help me catch more fish. By the way I spend most of my ice fishing days fishing in 10-20ft of water for gills, crappie, bass, and perch. Thanks all
I have a dozen or so ranging from 20-200 dollars I seem to use the HT blues the most love em and the rod alone was 8 dollars.
Been doing couple more days/night researching and thinking. Starting to wonder if it would be better to get two 13 combos for $60 each or one $100 rod? Thing is I already have a bunch of combos and last year i bought a Tica Cetus and Abu Cardinal reels from a guy and they are superb reels compared to the rest I have. As much as I think it would be a better value to get two combos compared to one rod I reeeeeaalllly think a $100 rod paired with the Tica would be the only pole i use for jigging??? As for poles for fishing with minnows I can use all my cheaper ones as the rod doesn't have quite as much to do with it other than setting the hook. Can only jig one, maybe two poles at a time so why not have that one be darn nice? hmmmmmm i just need to shut up and order one.....
You got a couple of decent reels - you can get a couple of 13 rods (alone) - they make a decent rod for about 20$ I like my new ones.
