If I am fishing alone in my boat, up to 12 (which is the max I can fit).  If I am fishing with someone else in my boat, around 6 (and my fishing partner brings 6).  If I am fishing out of my friends boat, only 4.

Bank fishing, I take 2 baitcasters.  Yak, I take 2 baitcasters and a spinning rod.  Boat I take 4 baitcasters and 1 spinning.  I don't do tournament fishing yet.

Bank - 2 casting and 1 spinning

Boat - 12 casting and 2 spinning

Co angler - 4 casting and 1 spinning

Probably 10-12 casting rods and ~4 spinning rods in the boat for the average tournament if I am the boater.  ~6 rods total if I am the +1.

 

Local pond, 2-3 rods.

In a boat, usually 4.  I have them rigged for jigs, t-rigs, weightless, and cranks/spinnerbaits.  Off the bank I carry two.  One for fishing shallow cranks, and one for fishing plastics.

I'm a bank guy so when I hit the bank I carry 2. Then when I am on my buddy's 10ft Jon boat I carry 3. Small load compared to most of you carrying 10+ lol.

I usually have one rod with a crank, one with a soft plastic, and another with braid and a frog

I usually carry 4 on the bank and 6 when in the back of the boat as a co-angler. That being said I own 13 rods and reels lol

Not that lucky, she's got the better gear!

Lol, how did that happen?

You bring 29 rods for one day of fishing? How many boats do you bring to carry all your gear? Can you explain a day where you might need all those rods? 

25-30 depending on the lake... I dont like having to retie if i get cut off, or if the lure I am using is not producing the way i would like it to. I also would consider myself a junk fisherman, if one technique is really producing i will stick with it, but more often than not I would say i use every single rod i bring for at least a few minutes (except the punch rod that one probably gets used the least). its kind of like golf, if I could bring 25 clubs instead of 14 i would...

Fishing from the boat 10-12 rods, and 1 rod if I am fishing from shore or local pond.

Here is what I carry depending on the situation:

 

For the bank - 4 rods, (2 Casting and 2 spinning)

Kayak - 6 rods (4 casting and 2 spinning)

Co-Angler 5 or 6 rods - (3-4 casting and 2 spinning)

 

Having state that, I have 20 bass rods.  Yes I have a problem, but at least I'll be ready when I get my boat either a Nitro Z7 or Tracker 176TXW.

It might be because she is prettier.  Or else tougher.  :punch-2:  Or else would :cut:  him off.

I'll help.  Send the better ones my way.  :lol-045:

 

I'm in a similar position.  However, I still have more reels than rods so I am looking to add even more this year.  Darn Bait Monkey!  :violin-011:
