    What is a good worm rod?

    I'm looking to buy a good worm rod. I've been told that the duckett rods are the best and I have also heard that the carrot sticks are the best. What are your alls personal opinions on the best overall worm rod??

    Price Range ???

    If your wanting higher end rods that something like 1 Dobyns 2 Denali 3 G Loomis 4 Zombie etc. You can go to tacklewarehouse.com or wired to fish & read reviews, but tackle warehouse has absolutley the best selection of rods to be found. Check it out & see what you think.

    Another Option

    That I use a lot are Shimano Clarus rods. Around $89.00 with lifetime over the counter warranty. Shimano has some like the Crucial & Cumara that are a lot more high end with the same warranty. Shimanos warranty isn't matched by anyone as far as replacement over the counter, but about all of the high end rod companys usually have a pretty good one. There are also custom builders that make awsome rods & can make them to your standards. Look at bbcboards.net & go to the rod & reel forum & ask about rods or in the lounge & get a lot of good reviews from actual users of the brand your interested in.

    I will second the Shimano choice. They are the best out there and have the best warranty. The Clarus is a great rod but a little heavier than the Crucial and Cumara but still an awesome rod and has a greast price.
    I use ostly Crucials and a couple Cumaras. Love them all!

    In my opinion, the Shimano Crucial is an excellent worm rod. I have a couple of the 6'6"cork handled med/hvy fast action rods that seem to be just about perfect for me.

    Falcon Bucoo 6'10" MH is a great rod IMO. It is their signature jig and worm rod. For the price they are very sensitive, able to feel every little tick of 1/4 oz jig in 24 feet of water. Also the 5 year warranty is great since that beats almost everybody except shimano. Just try out a lot of different ones. Higher the price usually means the better quality rod.

    g loomis Mosseyback for worm fishing, If I were going to use a spinning rod I would use the G loomis IMX or maybe a bronzeback.

    I like Shimano Crucials for bait caster; but I did not like Shimano Spinning Rods. The best spinning rod I have tried is Avid by St. Croix. It is an excellent Rod for worm fishing. But it would run about $180. A cheaper rod that I like for worm fishing is a Fenwick; I think you may be able to get a good Fenwick rod for $100.

    Not sure what's available with the Tennessee handle, I use to fish a worm with a Lewis speed stick. That is a tape on handle and it was very comfortable and sensitive. I still have it and use it on occasion.
