2 MH BPS IM8 7'
1 MH IM8 6'6"
1 MH All Star 7'
1 Abu Conlon MH 7'
1 MH Bionic blade 7' spinning
Usually have 2-3 more below deck, the bionic blade spends a lot of time below deck also.
I used spinning outfits exclusively, then got hooked on baitcasters. I think my total is 13-14 maybe 15-16. But the ones above are always on the boat.

Anywhere between 15 and 21 rods depending on the lake and the season. In other words WAY too many!

[Nitro 640]

I only have 3 rods
1 spinging combo with pop'r
1 with a spinner or crank
and 1 with a minow(bango!!!) Like the actioning and yes I do catch fish on them!
Rod and reel I dont know what they are, shimano reels and poles for the most part when I last looked.

[MIbasser]

I'm much like reb, 13 for me. Mostly BPS extreme then a bunch of others. I should be adding two more come this spring as well. My rod locker is full!

[Jigger]

I don't keep rods in my rod locker. I've got tackle boxes, rain gear, anchor, tools and some open area for a companion's gear in the rod boxes. I keep my rods in the house. I put a nylon cover over my reels and haul them in the boat when on the road.
