Talking New here

I am new to the site and to bass fishing. i got into fishing to spend more time with my husband and the bait monkey tackled me , and hasn't stopped talkin to me since. LMAO...... I am just wondering how many people here fish with 2 or 3 poles? I only have 3 and i am wondering if it would make it easier if i had more poles?

Oh, you're gonna fit in just perfect around here LOL.

A pink hoodie on a lady is perfectly fine.

Welcome to the site, pinkbass. Most of the people on here have a MINIMUM of 4 rods with them, usually more, if they're in their own boat. In somebody else's boat, most will take a MAXIMUM of about 4. And while fishing from the bank, I'd say usually 2-3. Much more than that and it gets hard to carry them all.

Welcome to the site! Always good to have new baitmonkey victims show up in here looking for help, hahaha. I usually have 7 outfits rigged and ready to go, but I would probably have more except that I fish out of a 12 foot jonboat, and 7 outfits already makes for a cluttered boat. It partly depends on your prefered fishing style and how serious you want to get when it comes to your fishing. Five outfits would be a bare minimum for me.

Welcome! Myself, I only carry 3 rods, due to space and need, but i do plan on getting a bigger boat, and becoming more technique specific with my rods in the future.

You should see me hauling around my six rods, and I fish from the bank/shore. Along with my cooler, a tackle box, and a 5-gal bucket to sit on cause I'm tired when I get where I'm going. Sometimes I even catch something and lose my seat.

I think I'm gonna make me a fishin vest out of velcro and run some of the sticky side down the thick part of my rods. That way I can just stick my rods on my back and keep on keepin on. lol

Judging by the picture in your avatar, you got a balded headed man there to help you??

I carry way too many rods in my boat (usually around 16). When fishing with somebody else I usually carry around 5-6 rods (and feel sorta naked cause I don't have my usual 16).

Anyway, welcome to the site! We always mix a little sarcasm and "fun-poking" in with the answers when we can and always end up being the best of friends! I am sure you guys will enjoy it!

You know, 1/4...there is a little stand-up portable rack that golfers use on pitch-and-putt par-3 courses to keep from having to lay their clubs on the ground and gather them back up every shot. I wonder if something like that exists for fishing rods? Hmmmmm.....

Basically, you need as many rods as you can fit in your boat without stepping on them. If you goof up and break one, you now know know exactly what that number is.
