Entsport 2-Piece w/3 tips

[walpy]

So I have 1 rod right now, a 6'6" medium-fast St. Croix and want another rod to have set up (I have 2 reels).. is this rod a bad idea? I don't have a ton of $ to play with so thought it might be a good start, effectively 3 rods for a low price.

 

Looking for any opinions.

Having to set it up everytime i switch baits would suck

For about $25 more I think you would be better off with a medium or medium heavy Abu Garcia Veritas.

A Berkley  Lightning Shock rod might be a better option. They cost $49 but can often be picked up at Wal Mart on an unmarked clearance for as little as $15. Just take the rod to the check out line and have it price checked.

 

Another option would be going to Dicks Sporting. They sell a Quantum Escalade baitcasting rod. I own one of the 7 foot MH, 1/4 to 1 1/2. Go in the store and buy a jig, a pack of gum anything cheap.  On the back of your receipt is the directions to fill out an online customer service  questionnaire.  Fill it out and print a $10 off coupon. Now go buy the $100 IM8 Escalade rod for the sale price of $49.00- your $10 off coupon.

That will give you a decent second rod for $39.00.
