As a non-boater, Co-angler, Am or how ever you refer to the guy in the back of the boat, I tend to only bring 4-5 rods with me. These are pretty much with me every trip:
Dobyns 733 casting Topwater Powell 734 casting Jigs, C-Rig Powell 703 spinning Dart head, wacky style Lamiglas xps 702 spinning Drop shot special Then depending on how the bite is I will have either: Powell 703 casting reaction stuff Blades, crank, jerk bait Gloomis GL3 FSR904x. Flipping / pitching
To fish is to live!

My Okuma 3 GS swimbait sticks: I have one in each action, MH, H, and XH (all 7'11 except for the XH) and I have them on deck almost every time I am out. My favorite of the bunch is the MH because its great for wake baits that I throw the most and also works great for swim jigs and 5 inch Big Hammers. I do wish they still made the 7'10 H, as its shorter handle was better for big walking baits. (my 7 year old slammed mine in the door of my van) Powell 734: This is the best multi-purpose rod I have ever owned. I use it for pitching Senkos, tossing chatter baits spinnerbaits and buzzbaits, dragging 1/2 to 3/4 oz football jigs, spooks, ripbaits and open water frogging.
7'10 MH BPS Cranking Stick: Yeah its cheap and a bit heavy but I love this rod for cranking. From LV500s to DD-22s this rod handles them all. I have caught everything from 12 inch spotted bass to 20 lb stripers on this rod and I love it. Lotta ins, lotta outs, lotta what have-yous

Dobyns Champion Series 806MLSB for mainly 8" to 10" swimbaits.
Dobyns Champion Series 795MLSB for mainly 5" to 8" swimbaits.
Custom Graphite USA 80 Monster Mag built by Adam Cargill for 10" to 12" swimbaits.
Dobyns Champion Series 805FLIP/PUNCH for flippin', pitchin', punchin'; and bed fishing.
Dobyns Champion Extreme DX784 C ML for A LOT of thing! It's called a "Jig Rod", but I use it for casting jigs, different plastic rigs, small swimbaits, walking baits (throws a mile), spoons of various sizes, buzzbaits, etc, etc; etc. Super versatile rod if you don't mind the length..............which I don't:)!
Arden FIVE POUNDERS ARE SMALL :)!
