G loomis E6X vs Shimanos Zodias for plastics?

   Anyone fish theses rods which would you choose mainly for plastics wacky and light baits?

I have not fished with a zodias but I hear only good things. I own one E6X (mag bass) and I do like it. one thing to consider when handling these two rods is the grips/styling.

 

the E6X is old school with full cork and foregrips (which I like)

 

the zodias has no foregrips (if im not mistaken) and has EVA foam.

 

I prefer cork grips so I would lean towards the Loomis. but to each is own.

 

best thing to do is see if you can handle both and see what feels better to you. both are great rods.

The Zodias is definitely a much better rod than the E6X. Only downfall of the Zodias compared to the E6X is the warranty. The E6X would probably be significantly cheaper if it didn't have the Loomis name and warranty paired with it.
