duanec Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Maybe its just my casting style. that's actually a very good point, as your personal style may mean a certain rod is better suited to you. quality issues aside, every time this topic comes up i see negative comments about rods/brands that i like and rods/brands i don't like so much getting props. i learned the hard way - i would not buy a rod without a test drive.

tgo Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I love my Sage FLi 696, that extra 6" makes for a great nymphing rod on the Bow. Its fairly cheap too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Consider building a rod, or buying a custom rod. Throwing a rod together really does not take very long, and you can end up with twice the factory rod you could have afforded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAV Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Sage < $450.00 = EBAY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowbonehead Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Considering when this post started I sure hope it hasn't taken this long to pick a rod!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
