BnM Sam Super Sens Bottom Seat/Touch Sys 12' 2pc

The BnM Sam Super Sens Bottom Seat/Touch System is a 12-foot, 2-piece crappie rod built for anglers who demand sensitivity and balance in shallow-water jig fishing. Constructed from 40-million modulus IM6 graphite, this pole delivers the responsiveness that's made the Sam Heaton series a go-to choice for crappie specialists, while the bottom-seat reel placement shifts the weight lower in your hand for noticeably improved balance whether you're running a baitcaster or spincast setup.

The Touch System is the signature advantage here: it gives you direct contact with the rod blank itself, letting you feel even the lightest bites that might otherwise telegraph as subtle vibrations through a traditional grip. That sensitivity matters when you're working jigs in brush, timber, or over structure where crappie feed. Paired with the genuine Portuguese cork handle, which resists heat and maintains its tactile feedback through long days on the water, the rod feels like an extension of your hand rather than just a tool.

Cosmetics matter too. The high-quality ceramic inserts set in brass-plated aluminum oxide frames give the Sam Super Sens the polished look that matches its performance pedigree—a rod that performs like it looks.

Frequently Asked Questions

What reel works with the bottom-seat design?

The bottom reel seat accommodates both baitcasting and spincast reels. The lower placement improves balance regardless of reel type.

Why does the Touch System help with crappie fishing?

The Touch System places your hand in direct contact with the rod blank itself, not just the handle. This lets you feel bites and subtle structure contact that might be missed through a traditional grip, crucial when jigging for crappie.

Is this rod good for shallow water and timber fishing?

Yes. The 12-foot length and sensitivity are ideal for working jigs around brush, timber, and shallow cover where crappie congregate. The IM6 graphite provides the responsiveness needed in those conditions.
