Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted February 18, 2007 Super User Posted February 18, 2007 Any one seen the new lightning rods they are decent in the store nice reel seats and actions??? Quote
jdw174 Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Looked at a 7' yesterday. I consider them to be a best buy for a fisherman on a budget. Quote
castaway Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 The new ones are extremely light in weight compared to other rods that fall anywhere near $35.00.I don't own one, just looked at them at Bass pro shop yesterday.They would be worth looking at if your needing more rods. :)Ivan Quote
Super User cart7t Posted February 18, 2007 Super User Posted February 18, 2007 I haven't seen the new Lightning rods. All I can say is my wife still uses a pair or old early/mid 80's LR rods I gave her way back when. The ones with the old EVA foam pistol grips. I can pick those up today and it's still amazing how light those rods are and extremely sensitive. They were way ahead of their time when they first came out. Quote
Big-Bass Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 I like the look of the new Lightning Rods in the catalog...and at their price, they seem to be hard to beat. BTW, I just sold an original Lightning Rod that is was in new condition basically. It was a 6' pistol grip from 1985. Kind of regretting doing so, but I was making room for new stuff. Quote
