Ronald K Smith Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Was at Academy this weekend looking for a casting rods for Alabama rigs. On their website they showed a Skeet Reese casting rod. Didn't find that brand but found a Berkley Emotions Punching rod, it's 7'6" XH fast tip with micro guides. Has anyone else tried these rods out? Quote
NotnatsSamoht Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 I haven't got a chance to try them personally but I was considering them based on all the good reviews iv seen about them. I have a Berkley lightning shock and love it, the reviews for the emotion are better than the shock so I would give it a try. But if your shopping at academy I hear thier h2o ethos is a great rod too. Quote
cottny27 Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 I have the Emotion in the 6'9" moderate action and like it. Seems pretty sturdy to me for $79 you can't go wrong. Quote
Ronald K Smith Posted September 24, 2015 Author Posted September 24, 2015 Yes, I thought the price was reasonable, like the feel of the rod. Academy also had various Castaway brand rods on clearance.. Quote
Super User new2BC4bass Posted September 24, 2015 Super User Posted September 24, 2015 Maybe smalljaw67 will check in with some information. Information I got from Dan when I asked him about some cheaper rods (for a friend) was that a friend of his who uses nothing but high end gear bought an E-Motion for his son and was quite impressed with the rod. Dan will have to give you the particulars as I no longer remember them. I just remember that it is one line I would give a serious look at if I needed a rod in that price range. Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted September 24, 2015 Super User Posted September 24, 2015 The Emotion seems like a nice rod, I wouldn't mind trying one. Quote
Super User bowhunter63 Posted September 24, 2015 Super User Posted September 24, 2015 I have a Berkley shock,Really like it and the h20 rods from academy are great rods.I want to pick up a emotion rod in the future. Quote
