Between my son and I we normally have 10 on the ice.  I hate taking time to tie a different lure one.  Plus you need ones for different fishing techniques.  Couple for jigging walleyes etc.

Two old school hand lines and about ten assorted other ones that I use for everything from perch to lakers. My favorite is one that i made my old man out of a broken fly rod. Man he kills the gill with it.

Can you really have too many rods? I have three but I also see sometime soon increasing that number due to upcoming sales. If my son and my wife decide to go with me I am down to  one rod each! >:( As long as I can afford to fish, I will. Some people like to fish, I HAVE to fish.

I carry 11 all rigged up different, all jigging rods no spinning reals, as a matter of fact I just ran an inventory what I had in the basement, I laughed, 38 tipups, 66 jigging rods that I have collected over 40 yrs, that is one reason I don't go to auctions anymore!

Did an inventory the other night....
total of 19 rigs. Carry half of them rigged....several with larger search lures and others with my go-to lures. Of course the G-unit likes to come along sometimes so I have to be sure there are enough rods for the two of us.

I have 15 rod and reels, 6 pick sticks (never use them) and 4 green hornets.  I am glad you didn't ask about tip ups, cause I would have to go out to the garage and count.

Carry 7, actually use about 3 of em.  stick to my st.croix most of the time.  i live in a land of 5 lines, so I use 4 tips, then jig the last.

No walleye in MA, so all mine are panfish rods

I really don't have a clue how many ice rigs I have. I have them stashed all over this house. Probably 20 something. My budget was very limited this year so I only added a DVR for the camera and a propane lantern to the arsenal. Oh yeah, and the 800 Sportsman but that machine has actually had more use PLOWING SNOW NEARLY EVERY OTHER DAY THROUGH THIS ENTIRE WINTER !!!!  :%$#!:... (sorry - Michigan stuff there).
But I agree, can't have too many!
