daiwaguy Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Evergreen super stallion stick with a Px type R or Presso. Might even use a steez rod to stick with brand loyalty! Quote

Super User Goose52 Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 I always answer these "dream" threads about the same way.... My dream rod is the one with a 15lb largemouth bass on the end of the line........................ 4 Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 I always answer these "dream" threads about the same way.... My dream rod is the one with a 15lb largemouth bass on the end of the line........................ No kidding............. If one can have a combo that will handle a 10#+ bass out of cover than go catch a 40# tarpon with the same rod and reel, not a bad outfit to own. I don't have to dream, I already own it. 7'6 med redbone 40 soron with 15# braid, that said I could accomplish the same things with a number of other combos I have........only the fish matters. Quote
John G Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 I let y'all know when I get my Antares HG in a day or so if it's my dream reel or not. I don't know anything about the fancy rods from overseas other than they sure do look great so I will have to settle on what I know. The Antares is going on my Loomis 844IMX but I eventually want to upgrade to the GLX. Quote
LivewellHero Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 I'll stick to American rods, I don't know anything about JDM stuff. G Loomis's are nice, but I want a St. Croix Legend Xtreme Tournament bass rod, 7'' or 7'1" MH fast action with a Daiwa Steez. Quote

A-Jay I guess I don't dream big enough... I usually pick 15lbs as the "dream" since the Tennessee state record LMB is 14.5lb... 1 Quote
Super User Teal Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 Dream rod? Can't I be content with what I have? But ill bite, I guess its a dream come true, because I intend to order a NRX 894c. And I already have Team Lews Pro, I'm gonna put on it. If I was made outta money I could see putting a tricked out zillion R or a steez Quote

Super User J Francho Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 My dream rod? One that worked as well for everything as my 7' Ugly Stik and Penn reel back when I was ten or so. 1 Quote
0119 Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 You may want to fish saltwater., that's where 25 pound fish are called dinks. Not in my saltwater! Quote

Delaware Valley Tackle Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 If it's your dream (or making it a reality) why wouldn't you go with something completely custom? The point of diminishing returns on an over the counter rod is right around $250-$275. A competent builder can give you more bang for your buck at this price range and even below. 2 Quote
Super User Tywithay Posted January 25, 2014 Super User Posted January 25, 2014 Already have my dream rod. An Edge Mag Bass 705 with a Chronarch CI4+. Unbelievable rod. My spinning dream rod would be a Stella 2500FE (already have the reel) and a Megabass Destroyer Phase III F4.5-73XS (maybe someday). Quote
Super User Sam Posted January 25, 2014 Super User Posted January 25, 2014 Steez 711 Heavy HFBA Casting Rod Steez 103 SHA 7:1:1 Reel 20 Pound Segauer Fluorocarbon Line Around $1,200 for this setup. That's All Folks! Quote
