BronzeChaser Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 I've decided it's time for another spinning setup. I've already decided on the reel but I can't quite pick a rod. I'm looking for something between 6'8-6'10 for shakey heads and wacky rigs mostly, probably a med/ fast or x-fast between $100-$150. Any suggestions are welcome and appreciated. Quote
Super User 00 mod Posted May 14, 2013 Super User Posted May 14, 2013 I love my Pinnacle 70ml/f. It fishes just a bit heavier than a ML. It is my favorite setup/ paired with a 2500 ci4 Jeff Quote

Super User kickerfish1 Posted May 15, 2013 Super User Posted May 15, 2013 Fenwick elite tech smallmouth series rods. The 6'9 medium rod would be good for $129 with a lifetime warranty. Comfortable in hand, light weight, and sensitive for a rod in its class. Quote
thehooligan Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 I think theres a used avid in the classifieds, id pick that up Quote
SissySticks Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Get a custom builder to build you a Batson 802.75 blank any way you want it. It is a lot like the St. Croix 6'8" mxf rods but a little lighter in the tip and a little more power in the midsection. I know a builder who will do it for $125 + shipping if you're interested, PM me and I"ll give you the number. Quote
skeletor6 Posted May 16, 2013 Posted May 16, 2013 On the lower end the fenwick elite tech smallmouth is an excellent choice Quote
