I use BnM. Have several in different lengths and strengths.
I have a few sams super sensitives. I like them. They seen a little heavy compared to some of the others
I've had a falcon ultra light for years that's been a great rod. Also have a b'n'm sharpe shooter.
I bought a superlight 6 ft falcon evo. It a sensitive rod. They had 3 of them at store snd 2 had broke tips lol. I try to be careful with it
Those blue ones he uses sometimes are the same Lews I have. The green ones are ACC Crappie Stix. I have a 10 footer, but haven't tried any in shorter versions. I bought that one to try deep vertical fishing. Guy at work wanted $25 for it, so it's mine. lol.
I've used ACC Crappie Stix in 7.5, 8, and 11ft. I like them all. I admittedly don't have any experience with nicer crappie rods, so I can't really compare them to much.
One tip I'll give you - if you leave the 8ft ACC rod sticking sideways out the back of your side-by-side, and you forget about it and pull in to the garage, it just might snap in half. I learned that from my dad.

acc crappie stix have a huge following. but i cant deal with that color. i like plain looking rods. cant do that bright colors. i know that sounds weird. I only use diawa regal lt reels and black or neutral colored rods. the acc crappie stix (even the 6 ft rods) are thicker than i prefer.I've used ACC Crappie Stix in 7.5, 8, and 11ft. I like them all.

one of my favorites is a 6' Gloomis super mag taper with extra fast tip. IMO it's close to the perfect curly tail casting and dock shooting rod I bought it about 25 years ago. It could be a little bit longer but, it does fine.
I make my own from mud hole and really like the 7' light action I also like the 6'6 in the same blank.

Alot depends on how you fish and how deep the fish are. If you use a float and fly, the deeper they are, the longer your rod will need to be unless you use a slip float.
i cant get used to those super long crappie rods
just ordered 2 mustad detector rods. one for me and one for my son. super premium rods. already a great price at 89.00, even better with free shipping. but if you use promo code welcome25, you save 25percent off the order. i got a 7 ft light action and 6.5 ft light action. total to my door is 134.00 for 2. not gonna beat that price. check em out.
