GonzoFishing Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Hey everyone! I'm heading to Utah for a couple of days in June and can only bring one rod/reel combo. I'm looking to buy a spinning travel rod to go with a Quantum Cabo 40 reel that I already have. I would like something that I can use in freshwater and inshore saltwater. Any suggestions? Oh yeah, I'd like to keep in under $120 Quote
CSB Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 I have a St. Croix Triumph 4 piece that I am really happy with. They sell it in a few lengths/actions. Quote
LAO162 Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 Cabela's has their XML pack rods on sale for $120. LL Bean also makes a travel spinning rod for about $90. I only played with it for about 30 seconds, but it felt ok. Quote
SimonSays Posted April 28, 2009 Posted April 28, 2009 BPS also has a 3pc extreme rods in casting and spinning...they go on sale from time to time for about $70? They're decent Quote
GonzoFishing Posted April 29, 2009 Author Posted April 29, 2009 Thanks SimonSays! I'm sort of leaning towards the XPS from Bass Pro mostly for the price and the reviews seem really good. They have it on sale right now for $69. Quote

They are both sensitive and strong and their warranty is hard to beat for the money. Just my 2 cents. Quote
