I have about 15 and counting
I always get the 3rd degree when discussing this with the wife she always asks why and my answer is always different fish different rods well why do you have 4 for the same kind of fishing (6.5 -7 foot for bass, pike,walleye ect) this was answered last year when I broke a rod in a derby and the spare was right beside me.
my problem with that incident is it put my life at risk thats what I was mad about all im saying is common sense is priceless and anyone on the water needs to have that
I used to own a little 14 footer with a 50 and was out on lake O about a mile out and here comes a 3/4 million $ boat plowing about 100 meters off my bow if I had something to throw I would have needless to say my bilge pump was going for 20 mins after that
all he did as he passed was wave at me as I was yelling (words that shouldn't be said here...lol)
I have been around boats for 30 years and I have never been on the water without seeing an idiot, it's just like the road there are alot of people who think they are God
