How Many Fishing Rods

[gudkatch]

This is a question I get asked by alot of people and when I reply "do you mean fly rods, spinning rods, casting rods, trolling rods or ice rods?" they give me this queer look.  And I usually just reply "what??"

Of course you can't have too many, I'm always adding to my collection, but I really don't need that many rods. I wish  I could have as many fly rods as you, although I'm still learning, but I'm still quite young and my job can only buy me so many rods along with everything else I am trying to (or in process of) purchasing....car, boat, car insurance, high maintenance girlfriend...

Im building up my arsenal slowly but shurley.  Over the last year or 2 I have gone from being a one rod guy to buying a few each season....

The ice is not even gone and I have already added 2 more rods to my collection.....I know I may take dome flack for this but I love the new Quantum PT Tounry baitcaster...The thing is incredible. I also picked up a nodle rod and ultralite reel for crappie this spring..nice to have a crappie lake near by

A man can never have too many rods

[Skipper]

 I have lots of rods for many purposes, one thing they all have in common is the shimano reels attached to them
