[stinger]

I'm not as sick as you guys. I only have 15 trolling and 3 spinning setups. Also a couple spare rods & reels just in case something breaks. Got out of ice fishing years ago and my son took all that stuff along with a couple spinning outfits.

Once you get over 50 then you'll start to lighten up the load a little .

[nyforests]

Why are you doing this? I woke up and felt good about myself this morning, even with the cold and wind. Then I answered your little poll, had to take inventory and now realize how much I have spent! Darn good thing I'm single, or I would be soon! I have 4 wire set ups, 6 innerflow rods for planer board and walleye, and I think 8 - 10 regular trolling rods.

[Erbyjoe]

Ok I thought I had a problem but as I can see some of you have me beat by a mile So this is what i can think of right now.I'm pretty sure my wife could point out a few more but I really don't want her to see this thread

10 Rigger rods

4 diver rods(2 wire/2 mono)

10 spinning rods

3 fly rods

3 salt water rods

5 bait casting rods

5 icefishing rods

1 noodle rod for stealhead fishing

Adding 2 core rods this spring

P.S.SkeinMachine What do you mean by a Float rod :?:

[nyforests]

A friend of my entered the dark world of float fishing. Its the bastard child of a noodle rod and fly reel. allows for better drifts using skein and a bobber w/ just enough shot to keep the bait just off the bottom, one of many combinations. Basically it does what a cane pole used to do, but costs a lot more~! Some day I'll give it a try~ sad, but true

[Erbyjoe]

So it's like the top of the line noodle rod but more $$ :?:

[ray koziatek]

from the lack of Seth Green rods in this post ,im either showing my age, or there so deep in the rafters you guys forgot you got em, :roll: look up. i pull mine down every lake trout derby on Seneca lake, throw it back 100yds on a jug, we callem meat rods caus they put meat in the boat and takes plenty of meat to reel them in. (2).

[Guest ReelDiel]

Ray, please refer to earlier poll on user age :shock:

[Yankee Troller]

WOW.....didnt realize the amount of money I had tied up inrods and reels. As far as I can remember off the top of my head I have:

22 trolling outfits

23 bass outfits

1 ultralite

1 flyrod

1 noodle rod

4 ice set-ups

Of course I didnt buy all the trolling setups, but I use them . If I were to put my dad and brothers other rods into that count it might touch 70 :shock: setups.

[mikejonestkd]

I'm gonna include both mine and my father's as we share most of the boat rods:

4 BWD ugly sticks for riggers

4 regular ugly sticks with shimano saharas for planar board trolling - shallow for browns and such

2 diawa accudepth/ heartland dipsy/ rigger rods

2 diawa sealine/ heartland wire dipsy rods

2 diawa accudepth/ firewolf dipsy rods

2 seth green rigs with pflueger 3180 reels

2 st croix spinning rods with stradic reels

2 ugly stick lite rods and sahara reels

2 guide series spining rods and symmetre reels

2 fly rods

2 ultra light rods and symmetre reels.

I guess that's about it. It makes 26 total

...... there also seems to be a little discrimination on this poll :shock:

we'll have to start another area that is made for old guys (people) with too much equipment

Can't wait to see who starts the poll on "How many boats do you have??"
