    What's Your Favorite Rod You Have Ever Used?

    I dont know if this has ever been talked about on here or not, but Im curious to see what your favorite rod you've ever used is. My fav rod is a 6 ft Team All Star pistol grip in medium heavy action. I also love the old school Fenwick Hooksetters. So if any of you guys out there have a hooksetter you are looking to get rid of let me know cuz Ill take it off your hands.

    Any rod made by GLoomis, they are top shelf.

    My boy uses an Ugly Stick and for a 6 year old this is the best rod made.

    For fly fishing nothing beats Sage.

    Carrot stix
    are the best rods made for the money no questions ask lifetime over the counter warranty would not trade 1 carrot stix for 2 gloomis Alot of the guys i know myself included have sold or traded other rods including gloomis shimano diawa to get a complete set of carrot stix
    this just my opinion (the carrot stix are so sensative you can feel a fish looking at your bait)

    My fav right now is a 7' All Star mh. It is super strong and sensetive, but my next rod will be a carrot stix. I have heard awsome things about them and I will give one a try. Plus its orange-GO VOLS.... Later smoke

    I use the 6'3" bronzeback fast action spinning rod. It's sensitive and strong. Used it to bring in a 28 lb asian carp yesterday (pix on photo board.) Yes, they are expensive but you can find very good deals on them if you look around. Most all good manufactures have a lifetime warranty with replacements. I've accidentally rolled up rod tips in the truck window, sent them back to loomis and had a replacements sent back within days.

    Shimano Crucial and Cumara. I have a wide array from 6'8" to 7'6". Best rods I have ever used, and I have owned GLoomis, St. Croix, Bass Pro Shop brands, among others. Also best value for quality. Who wants to dish out $300.00+ every time they want a new rod? Also, their warranty procedure can't be beat. No charge and switch them out at a Shimano dealer each time you break one. Other companies try to charge you for a replacement.......
