How many poles should a avid fisherman have for freshwater fishing?

Oh at first I thought you were making a joke about my people. Uhh I use three, but one is for when my uncle drives and I fish for bass using a skimmer while hes driving, and I leave that with a little loose tension, and then two other ones, that I don't really know what type they are.
 
when we go fishing my step dad takes five one for me one for my brother one for my other brother and one 2 for him he is really good at fishing he always says "the one that catches the biggest fish gets 20 dollars "and like always he always wins he takes fresh water fishing poles but we are at a lake it doesnt matter which ones you take
 
eight is a bare minimum.
you should have at least two spinning rods, one just a bit heavier than the other.
you should also have at least six baitcasting outfits. each rigged differently or with different line weights. or some combination of the two.
l take at least this many with me in the car every time. lots of back-ups or outfits for other fishing still at home. there is no limit as to what someone should have at home. but as l said you should carry with you a minimum of eight.
1. one 6' spin -- 6lb line. small jigs, bait.
2. one 11' predator spin -- 10lb line. bait.
3. one 6' baitcaster -- 8lb -- small topwaters. pop-rs and ricos.
4. one 6'6" B/C -- 8lb -- plastic worms.
5/6. two 6'6" B/C -- 10lb -- bigger plastics, jigs.
7. one 7'6" B/C -- 12lb -- bigger topwaters. spooks and such.
8. one either 6'6" or 7' B/C -- 14 or 15lb -- frogs and such. for fishing in the jungle.
and at times l will take an 8'6" B/C with 30lb for throwing big swimbaits.
