Flywatersmallie Posted September 22, 2008 Posted September 22, 2008 So I have a bit of extra cash and want to grab a new rod with all the deals out there. Going to get another 6'6" MH casting rod. Just for general use. Got a Revo STX to put on it. Now, suppose the following rods were all the same price, they are. Which would you pick? G Loomis GL2 St Croix Avid Fenwick HMG I've grown fond of these 3 but am open to other suggestions, just dont want to go too far over $100 (all 3 of these would be less that $100 on sale right now locally) will be buying my new stick sometime this week. Thanks for the input Quote
Super User Alpster Posted September 23, 2008 Super User Posted September 23, 2008 I love Loomis, but skip the GL2 and go with the Avid or HMG. JMHO Ronnie Quote
mike bat Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 id say the avid ,, but if you really wanted to try a new rod id try the new zillion ... they are close to the avids price point ... Quote
MSPbass Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 Check out the Fenwick World Class at Cabelas before you get the HMG. They're on sale for $100 right now. It's nicer and lighter than the HMG. Quote
Super User Jeff H Posted September 24, 2008 Super User Posted September 24, 2008 How much ya wanna bet he buys the Avid? Quote
Flywatersmallie Posted September 24, 2008 Author Posted September 24, 2008 I did hehehe. Bought 2 of them in fact, last night. Got a pair of 6'6" MH Avids as really general purpose rods at $96 a piece. Quote
