I might be too late, but I've directly compared the 6'6 M spinnng Aird-X to the Fenwick Eagle and the fenwick wins in a landslide. best wacky rod I've ever used

last year I compared the Daiwa revros/aird to the pflueger president xt/fenwick eagle. it was not even close how much better the pflueger/fenwick combo is in comfort, balance and sensitivity. the fenwick competes with my $200 st croix victory while the aird feels cheap

I ordered two rods from Omnia last Friday, FedEx delivered them two days later on Sunday. their selection and inventory is improving.

I had major analysis paralysis and all the good stuff sold out. ended up just getting two 6'6 ML premiers. you can never have enough ned rig rods!

which model? I was looking at those but couldnt decide

that's a little rich for my blood. my favorite right now is the victory 73mxf.

yeah I dont really need more rods but it's almost too good to pass up. a lot is out of stock already so need to decide quickly

If you entered the St Croix/Omnia Victory contest, check your email. There's a bogo offer for any St Croix rods

I'd suggest Round Lake or Long Lake in late April. Both those lakes work well for kayakers and power boaters and you don't need a wisco license.

I wanted to follow up and thank you guys. I purchased a Daiwa Aird-X and a Fenwick Eagle to test. The Fenwick is far and away the better rod. The Eagle has a much more comfortable reel seat than the Aird and unbelievable balance. It may balance better than my St Croix's that cost 2-3 times as much. I'll be looking to purchase another one soon

yes, people are catching them in lake county since they removed the dams in cook county. The fox, nippersink, kankakee, dupage, and kishwaukee rivers all have smallmouth as well. three oaks recreation area in crystal lake also has smallmouth but you have to rent a boat from them, no personal watercraft allowed

Omnia has a free Pflueger Trion with any spinning rod deal Free Pflueger Trion Reel with code: FREEREEL4

it's definitely possible to use that cheap of a rod and have good success. but I don't want a heavy rod that balances like crap and is fatiguing to use.

6'6' or 7'?

Where did you purchase from?
