how many fishing rods do u have???
« on: March 31, 2009, 10:19:08 PM »

hello everyone! I'm new here and i hope I'm not repeating other guy's topic
i was just wondering the # of fishing rods u guys got.
i have two rods for salmon, two light rods for trout and
those two Asian carbon cane-pole fishing rods.
(I'm not bragging or anything, i don't get to fish much and
i personally think have too many rods... that's all)
no, I'm not a flyfisher yet, i hope to become one sometime soon.
thanks for checking out my post.
by the way everyone, happy new fishing year!!!  ;)

Five fly rods and about  ten gear rods. I think more about getting decent spay rod for the Vedder.

Lots, deep down I'm really a tackle-tart and, also a British match angler so plenty of rods and poles for fishing all kinds of waters.
Not to mention I also have rods for fly fishing, sea fishing (shore and boat), travel rods, barbel, pike, carp and specialist rods to mention a few. 
As I told the wife, you can't play a round of golf with only one club!!!

I am  going to print this post. My wife seems to think a couple rods is good enough! I keep telling her I want more.

Maybe this post will convince her that more is better!   ;D

Let's see...

Fly rods:

Three 5-weights
Two 6-weights
Two 8-weights

Gear rods:

3 drift rods (for level wind reels)
1 bar fishing rod
2 spinning rods
2 telescopic (carp) rods (I have to start using them more...)

A total of 15...not bad.
