When choosing power and action for crappie jigging rods, it is essential to note that crappie are very delicate and light. Even the largest crappie does not require a powerful rod, sensitivity is the most essential factor. Therefore, light lures and light-powered rods are best suited for this application. Ultra-light power paired with medium to fast action will work perfectly in these applications. These rods also work better with cushioned hook sets that make the best hook sets for the 'paper mouths' of crappie.
