Twocoda Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) I just got finished cleaning up all my rods that i seem to leave all over the house so i was thinking maybe i should build a cool rod holder....then thought hmmmmm i wonder if anyone has any plans for 15 rods....then the wife says ....why do i have 15 rods when i can only hold one at a time? my answer to her was ....cuz there is 30 days in the month ...so im only halfway there....(she displayed a puzzled look and walked away).... Ok now how many rods does everyone own that they use on a regular basis....i do use each and everyone of mine 15 is my answer for now PS if anyone has any cool plans for a custom rod holder to accomadate 15 i would love to see it I can always build two to keep the wife puzzled Edited July 8, 2009 by Twocoda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dara Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Lessee I have an ultralight for specs and inland lake walleyes A medium spinning for big lake walleyes and pike (ewww Pike, but hey, ther'e incidental) A medium heavy baitcaster thats great for jigging whitefish, and when I go for bass A noodle rod for river bows. A rigger rod for salmon and a flyrod for bows pretty much covers my needs. I use a stick in winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonny Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 About 15, and that`s too many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I don't have the foggiest notion. Is "a whole bunch" a valid answer? Do I have a problem? Nah, the "light of my life" uses them too and every time a new one catches my eye, well I'd best buy a second for her. Same with new lures, there's no way I get only one.

NAW Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 (edited) This post is going to get a ton of replies. I have 3 that are always in the boat, and another 5 that are only pulled out when needed (12' tdr, and ice rods). I only replace rods when they break. Don't have enough room in the garage to stock pile rods, with 2 boats, a snowmobile, and countless other toys that my wife thinks are pointless!

ciceri Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 2 soft water, and 2 ice rods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattletrap2 Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I'm thinking about 5 spinning combos and 7 baitcasting combos. There are others, but those are in regular use most years. Like BackBay, I have my Dad's spinning combo mounted on the wall! That one is special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jediangler Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 18 including the wife and daughter's. I use about 5 regularly. The rest are once or twice a year rods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 somewhere around 15-20. A float rod, a fly combo, and some more carp rods are on my to-buy list though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
