Crappie & Panfish Spinning Rods

Crappie and panfish spinning rods prioritize finesse, sensitivity, and balanced feel for tiny jigs, soft plastics, spinners, and light spoons. At FishUSA, you’ll find ultralight to light-power blanks with fast tips that telegraph subtle takes yet keep small hooks pinned. Match rod length to your program—shorter tapers for close-quarters vertical work and docks, longer rods for float control and long casts on open water—and pair with thin braid or mono and light fluorocarbon leaders for maximum bite detection.

Build a confidence setup around your rod with proven crappie jigs and the right jig heads, add lifelike soft baits or go bright with inline spinners, spinnerbaits, and ultralight spoons. Fine-tune with scents & attractants, reliable hooks, and the right fishing line, then round things out with a smooth crappie reel. New to panfishing or rebuilding your box?
