iffwalleyes Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Say guys just thinking about my next Thorne Bros Rod. I currently have 2 sweet heart walleye rods and a dead stick and they are awesome. I was woundering what you guys use for crappies. I was thinking of getting one of there sweat heart perch rods for that. Or do you guys go and used that sweet heart panfish rod for that. I guess knowing myself I probably will just go ahead and buy both. All I know is that since buying my first one last year I will never buy another rod from fleet farm. ------------------Grip it and Rip itIFFWalleyesI Fish For Walleyesiffwalleyes at yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcePro Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 I would go with a 28" Sweet HeartI would talk with the guys at Thorne Brothers. They know their rods inside and out. Tell them what you have and what you are looking for and they will direct you into the right rod. You might want to consider having them build a rod for you. There is little differance in cost to have one made. Talk with Bill and he can make you what ever you are looking for.Between my wife and myself we have at least 24 of Thorne Brothers rods. It has taken me over an hour at times to pick out the exact rod action I am looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seabass77 Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 I use the 24" panfish sweetheart for 90% of my panfishing. I use the 28" as a back up and float rod. For jigging, I like the 24". The perch rod is heavier than you would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
