Accidentally clicked on 11 foot pole... Didn't realise there was pole and rod on there. I think your survey is missing a common rod size. 10' 6".

I have 11 rods.  6 1/2' to 10 1/2'.  How do I vote when I only have one choice?

There's a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot

1x   8' downrigger rod

1 x  9' ultralight panfish jig stick

1 x  6' ultralight spinning rod

1 x  10' bamboo pole

1 x  21' fiberglass carp pole

looking to add a 18 meter carbonfiber/kevlar/graphite mix pole to the collection - can't afford the 2300 bucks though for the pole (from Japan)
