Kistler Rods

[OroBass]

What are your thoughts on the 99 dollar models on sale at tw.

[smalljaw67]

No. Those are the overseas models and the blanks used aren't very good, very hollow with very little response, my neighbor got one 2 weeks ago when they went on sale, it was a B-Day gift for his son and he sent it back, a lot better rods with better warranties at that price point.

You can get a Shimano Compre for that money and it´s going to be a better rod.

I recently got two of the Kistlers.  To me, they can't be beat at that price point.  I am not a fan of the 13 Rods.

I have one of the kistler pros , the 7'3 heavy action, and i really like the rod, it is a heavier rod than say a bps carbonlite that you can buy at the same price point since the pro is on sale , but in my opionion the kistler is more sensitive. The only bad thing i can say about the rod is that it is a bit heavy but to me it's a all around good rod for that price point.

the kistler for less than $100 is going to be hard to beat. i now own 4 of there rods and i don't think you'll be disappointed .

i did have an issue w/ my klx spinning rod but its on its way back to kistler and should be taken care of , all of my casting rods have been flawless.

The kistlers have the best feel to me out of all of my rods, including my Dobyns.  I prefer the KLX series but the lower end models are still great to me.  I had a *** rod and the handle felt thin and I just did not like the overall feel of it.
