Long-pole jigging rods designed for vertical presentation and spider-rigging techniques for crappie. Spider rigging involves running multiple rods fanned out from rod holders on the bow of a slow-trolling boat, covering a wide depth and horizontal spread with small jigs. Target angler is the crappie specialist who fishes from a boat on reservoirs and lakes using this team-fishing or guide-style technique. Ineffective for casting or dock shooting, this is a vertical and slow-troll tool.
Premium graphite blanks with stainless steel guides and inserts for durability. Light power and fast action across all models for sensitivity when crappie takes are subtle. EVA handles for all-day comfort. 2-piece construction on the 10' and 12' models; 3-piece on the 14' for transport. All models share an identical light-power fast-action build, light line class (2-8lb), and small lure range (1/16-1/4 oz), keeping the series narrowly focused on ultralight panfish technique.
Four models in escalating length: CT9L-2 (9'), CT10L-2 (10'), CT12L-2 (12'), CT14L-3 (14'). The 9' is the shortest and most manageable for limited-space fishing; 10' and 12' are common spider rig lengths; the 14' 3-piece is the reach rod for deep-water structures where a longer drop is needed. All are spinning.

Longest model, 3-piece for transport. Adds reach for deep-water spider rigging where extra vertical drop and wider horizontal spread improve coverage. The 3-piece design makes it manageable in boat storage and transport.
