Got a new rod to get out into the trees for the crappie!
Just got this 43' pole! Can't WAIT to use it! NOT a TYPO! YES, it is 43' long, the very tip with the lilan is .7mm and the back in is only 31mm!

I'm trying to wrap my head around how exactly a pole like this even works. When you catch a fish, how do you get it to your hand? How much does a 43' rod weigh? I'd be wore out holding that baby over the water i would think.

They arent that heavy just like an old fashioned cane pole; lift aand swing. but you can collapse the sections and bring fish in that away as well. A friend and I played with the 9 meter poles a couple years ago. lots of fun. But an 8 pound carp is a real challenge
