Missourifishin Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 I was thinking maybe the Abu Garcia Vengeance. But I wanted to know what other rods in this price range you guys think might be a good choice. Thanks Quote
georgeyew Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 You can still get the Abu Vendetta at some Walmarts for $30. The Berkley Lightning Shock are pretty good rods also. 1 Quote
ZB85 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 The Shimano Sellus is a decent rod at that price Quote
Chance_Taker4 Posted January 13, 2014 Posted January 13, 2014 Sellus, Lightning Rod, Vengeance. Sellus my #1 pick. 1 Quote
Mike2841 Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 I used to fish with a couple of 50ish $ quantum combos from dicks Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted January 14, 2014 Super User Posted January 14, 2014 For 50 bucks a Calico Jack. Quote
cbass12 Posted January 14, 2014 Posted January 14, 2014 The new white BPS bionic blade is a pretty nice rod. I used a buddy's a couple times this fall and liked it well enough. I wasn't a fan of the way the reel seat felt in my hand so I didn't buy one myself, but for an economy rod it would be a good option. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted January 14, 2014 Super User Posted January 14, 2014 I have a couple Abu Vengeance's and a couple Lightning Rod Shocks........Flip a coin, they are both good rods for the $$. The Shimano Sellus's don't impress me at all, and I like Shimano stuff just fine, but I have seen a high % of them new on racks in the stores with QC issues....like crooked guides and reel seats, blobs of epoxy in the blank, etc...

Super User MCS Posted January 14, 2014 Super User Posted January 14, 2014 Lightning rod or BPS graphite series. Quote
AaronSchneider Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 I really like the BPS Graphite Series. Quote
Diggy Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Calico Jack as said, tec spec, lightning rod shock or something lightly used. Quote
backcast88 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 BPS Tourney Special. Its an IM-7 rod that $10 off right now which makes it $39.97 Quote
craww Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 Over the next few months tackleshops everywhere will be clearancing older product to accomodate the new stuff. Shop around and be patient, you may get a much nicer rod for your money. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted January 27, 2014 Super User Posted January 27, 2014 Calico Jack as said, tec spec, lightning rod shock or something lightly used. I'd sooner get rid of my more expensive rods than my Calico Jack, I may buy another one (MH)just for snakeheads. 1 Quote
cbass12 Posted January 27, 2014 Posted January 27, 2014 The powell diesel is on sale right now for $54.88 at tackle warehouse. I ordered one from a local tackle shop and the guy is matching the TW price. Heard a lot of good things about the rods. Quote
