poisonokie Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 I do love my Major Craft rods, but seriously, how bout them Tatulas? Powerful, sensitive, lightweight, well built, technique specific rods with great components, and easy to come by for less than msrp with a 5 year warranty makes them incredibly hard to surpass. They're hard to pass up, too. That's why I've got 4 and counting. 1 Quote

Super User Jrob78 Posted November 14, 2015 Super User Posted November 14, 2015 I have more St. Croix and Lamiglas than anything else, so I will go with those two. Quote

A big credit to Phenix and to you for your passion. thanks , can't wait to get a Phenix K2 765 (7'6'' H/F) , these blanks are ridiculous !!! with the blank weighing 1.9 oz. , build weight for the rod should come in at 3.25 oz. !!

Josh Smith Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 Dang. Looking at mine, it appears I have Berkely and Daiwa, mostly, with a Quantum and BPS or two. I have some ideas about what I need next. Been shopping and will likely have to go custom. Josh Quote
MidwestF1sh Posted November 15, 2015 Posted November 15, 2015 This post should of had a pole to see the total amount of the major companies. Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted November 15, 2015 Super User Posted November 15, 2015 I am a fan of the MHX rod blanks for custom built rods............lots of bang for the buck. Off the shelf rods, it's hard, for the money to beat Pure Fishing's line up..Fenwick, Abu, Berkley, etc.....all offer excellent performance for the $$. Are they the best made rods with top shelf components? No, but like I said, they are are, for the money, IMHO, tough to beat. Quote
Super User new2BC4bass Posted November 15, 2015 Super User Posted November 15, 2015 I feel Megabass and a few others would head my list.............if I could only afford them. Fenwick, Tatula and my Powell Endurance are some favorites. Believe it or not, but I have some Quantum rods that I enjoy using. My only Hurricane Redbone is a lot of rod for the money. Especially since I got it for $75 new. I'd gladly buy a few more at that price. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted November 16, 2015 Super User Posted November 16, 2015 Well I have a lot of BPS, St. Croix, and some old Daiwa rods. I like all of them as long as they can hold a fish. Quote
