SC53 Posted May 13, 2020 Posted May 13, 2020 I know the title is somewhat misleading ? I’m looking for a flipping rod for the wife that is as light(in actual weight) as possible but still get the job done. Too heavy of a rod and it tires her out quick. Prefer 7’-6”. Going to put a 100 series Shimano on it with 50# braid to keep the overall weight down. Mainly going to be fishing sparser stuff like pad, reeds and grass with less than 1 oz. weights. Would like to keep the rod somewhere between $100-150. I am in Florida so there’s always a chance at a good one. Fishing out of a boat too. Help a brother out. Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted May 13, 2020 Super User Posted May 13, 2020 At $ 149.99 the Irod flipping rod would be a good choice, very light, well built, looks good, and customer service is next to none..I have 3 of them, and have another on back order at TW. Quote
SC53 Posted May 13, 2020 Author Posted May 13, 2020 Hammer, just looked at their website, I like what they offer. Quote
Super User Tywithay Posted May 13, 2020 Super User Posted May 13, 2020 Tatula 761HFB 4.3oz and looks pretty sharp. Tatula rods cover pretty much everything in that price range and they're stupid light for the price. Quote
