Poll: How many rods do you have?

[stevomac59]

I have 2 BC's and 2 Spinners that I use regularly.

Counting my Ocean rods, walmart brands, and others, I have about 20

[Bassboss]

2 baitcasters, and 1 spinner!

[flfireman]

My answer is totally dependant on my wife not reading this site.

I have 27 total, but most are my early 2 piece wally world combos. On one's that I actually use, it is closer to 12

[JRL]

4 - 7

But only 4 of them go on the boat at any one time.

I only have two arms unfortunately, so I will probably never own more than ten rods. 4-7

[Rebbasser]

20+ in the boat.

Probably 75 in the attic.

I'm a tackle junkie, too.

From a former "High" of perhaps 60-70, (maybe 85 if you include dedicated coastal rigs and fly rods,) and since I began to give rods and reels away, at least 25 as of present.
Friends used to refer to one room of my condo as "The Graphite Forest".
It can be fairly stated that I don't need any more. That said, I discovered three (3!) virtually mint Curado 200BSFs that I'd forgotten about. I sold one to someone who begged me to part with it but I might want to acquire mid-priced rods...Lowriders, etc, in two different powers and actions as a hedge against someone not having the "right stuff". These rigs would become loaners and training tools, I guess.
Oh, there's a REVO and Lowrider Lizard Dragger on loan that I DO want back...someday.

4 that I use and are decent, 6-8 total total but some are in various stages of being worn out.

[Charles Slone]

I have around 6 or 7. One baitcaster, two spinning, and the rest spincasting. I only use 4 of them, though.

[Christopherkeene9]

Somewhere between 25 and 40. All various types from light bass/bream rods to 80W sized rods for Swordfish and tuna.

[NWOhioBear]

Umm broken ones don't count right ? :P..


My dad *****es at me every couple of months since when I was younger I would go out and use his poles and Well I was a big clumsy lad. Now I'm a big clumsy man just I've learned to pay attention. I have 1 pole atm I just bought last year. Now as for broken's well who knows....

[BassinID]

Total, about 20, but for bass I use 7.

[bassboogieman]

I keep a dozen baitcasters and 4 spinning on the boat, for bass.

[paducahbasser]

7 baitcasters, 2 spinning, hardly ever use the spinning rods though.

[aikenyounggun]

im in the 4-7 range that are mine... my dad has so many i feel no need to buy any... when we are prefishin we have 20 rods in the boat

[stevomac59]

why so many in the boat??

[bassboogieman]

Is that question directed at me?
First off because I can, I have a lot of room in the locker, but that's not my reason. I really hate changing baits when fishing, I just pick up another rod. Saves a lot of time, especially during tournaments.
If I'm throwing crankbaits - I have 3 or 4 crankbaits rods with different baits. Spinnerbaits - 3 rods. Jigs - 2 or 3 rods. Plastics - 4 or 5.
I use all the same brand rod and reels so they feel the same. Makes it real easy for me.

[JB]

I carry 4 to seven baitcasters with me, had seven at the ky trip and broke one cheapie berkley just by picking it up between the second and third eyelet, I guess to much pressure on that area of the stick. Its the only rod I think I've ever broken just handling it, instead of a mishap in the truck or boat.

[bassackwards]

do ultra lights count, nothing better than 2lb fish on 4lb line

[jooleyen]

Somewhere between 4 and 98.
