Good Bait Casting Rods Under 100$???

[dam0007]

Put 200+ casts on my new Shimano Clarus last night, love it! I think I paid $80 for it. Have it paired with a Chronarch.

*** is my fave rod in this pricepoint followed closely by the carbonlites.

Ahhhhh.......spring is here, people are finally getting out fishing. This might be the most civil $100 rod thread in the history of BR. None of...........this rod sucks, these rods all burst into flames on me, your an idiot and your wife is ugly if you don't buy "this" rod, etc...... heck even RW hasn't said anything offensive in a few days. LOL

The veritas and quantum alliances are very good, as well as the BPS extremes and bionic blades. The best value were the old tourney specials for $50. They aren't as good as the veritas or alliance but they were good. Now they changed them and the ratings are lower.

I have one of the Academy H20 Elite rods (the blue blank with the EVA grip) and for $79 ($59 if you wait for one of their rod riots), it boasts fuji micro guides, a fuji skeleton reel seat, and I've fount the 6'10" MHF to be a pretty sensitive, lightweight, functional all around baitcaster paired with a good fluoro. It's my main heavy t-rig rod, and that means a lot if you're me.

I have had alot of rods trying to look for the lighest best feeling rods that i can. I now own 3 abu garcia veritas, 1 lamiglass excel, and halo twillite and i love them all dearly for there own presentations. I am going to have to say I like the veritas better than the rest. They seem to have the most feel and are light and very durable. I also like the bps carbon lights but this just my opinion and hope it helps.

I've actually been happy with Daiwa Procyon rods....they are like 40-50 dollars and I put fish in the boat with them.

They feel OK, a bit tip heavy but for the price you gotta give on something.

They are work-horses for me.

[TNBassin']

You guys are missing out if you don't give the *** rods a try. Man they are sweet.

X2 actually really like that rod.

I have not read all the replies but Abu Garcia Veritas.

[nocluefisher]

I paid $99 for a new cumara recently from TW. Havent had the chance to use it yet, but if It fishes ad well as the reviews are I would say that is a pretty good rod for under $100.

[rcr1959]

IMO: Shimano Sellus for under $75, Move up to Falcon Bucoo for $99 -$110 range. There are many choices in the $100 price range.

[BassinB]

if you want to save a few bucks the Abu Vendetta is a very solid choice too. Not super finesse type rods, but as far as being a good workhorse rod I like them.  Used to fish veritas' but I had quite a few issues with quality control and I broke 2 of them.  Haven't had any of these issues with the vendetta.

[motodmast]

there are a bunch of good rods around the$100 mark. veritas, *** black, carbonlite. all these rods are good, my favorite is the ***. but ill bet you be happy with any of them. also the powell diesel's are REAL good rods for the money

[Diggy]

I have many of the rods named, but the bucoo and mojo need to be added, dont think I saw them brought up, if so my mistake. I dont own either.

[CountBassula]

don't know about their casting rods, but i have 3 hurricane spinning rods and they're great, for about $90, oh and my local Sports Authority on Powerline Rd and Hilsborough Blvd has ALL fishing gear 25% off!

 

Shimano Compre is $99 and I love mine too

[Stephen D.]

I just got a Powell Diesel in the mail yesterday.  Hope to try it out this weekend

[jwhowells]

I currently use all Mojo's and love them but I really want to try a Powell Diesel and a *** rod out. Maybe one of them will be my next rod.
