Zodias or Exbride?

[bassheel]

I'm going to gift myself a rod for my birthday coming up. This rod will be for weightless senkos for the most part. Which would you choose for sensitivity? 6'10" mhf more than likely.

Expride. More sensitive plus its cork!

I also would choose Expride, even though I don't like cork. Brian.

Coincidentally, my friend also just got himself a bday present last week, a zodias. The carbon handle is actually nicer than I thought.

Both rods are amazing. Obviously if you can swing the extra dough, go Expride. I have both A and B models. The A's are outstanding. The B...just a masterpiece of a rod. Functionality and looks are top notch.

Its your birthday and deserve the best...go for Poison Adrena.

An Ex Bride would not sounds bad on a birthday as long as it is not yours ?

Before I bought my two Zodias rods I looked at a Poison Adrena.  Both are nice rods.  The quality and sensitivity are outstanding.  I chose the Zodias because I couldn't see the price difference between the two.  The ZDC610MHA is perfect for Senkos. Mine has a Shimano Chronarch MGL 150 HG on it and it's a great combo.

If you want sensitivity for senkos, then go poison adrena.

I didn't find any of the Zodias models to be all that sensitive- I no longer own any Zodias rods.

The exprides are better. The expride B in the 6'10" med has a fast enough action and a stiff enough backbone that it would make a decent senko rod. The A model in the 6'10" was slightly more limber and I wouldn't recommend it for soft plastics.

The poison adrena 6'10 med and 6'11" med + , both would probably work for you. Both are super lightweight and fairly sensitive.

The 6'11"+ is a great rod, very sensitive and the extra power is great for T-rig senkos. If you are already willing wo pay 280 for an Expride, what's another $100 bucks..??. ?
