Some day I'm gonna find a use for the 21ft telescopic ebay spinning rod I keep stuffed in there. Completely useless, but I keep telling myself someday I'm gonna need that thing for something.?! Just in case.... Lol!

7/4/2019 1:04:07 AMThe idea of a 21ft rod sounds good until you try to use it, tangles and tip wraps constantly. Trolling it out the side of the boat, any rocking of hull tosses the lure around violently. It only gets worse when you actually have a fish on the end of it. Pretty much a novelty item, terribly designed flex. The little flexible ice rods that the op talked about are actually pretty useful, ive seen people vertically jig with them quite a bit.
