Thanks for the input. I spoke to a person yesterday ay G-Loomis about the 2 rods(sr720 and sjr720) and it sounds like the sjr720 is the one I am looking for so I called a guy at Dicks Sporting Goods yesterday and he was going to see if they had those in stock so I could compare but he never left me a message so that's where I am at. At $115(sr720) and $130(sjr720) there is not much difference either way so I am ready to go look.

What I hope is after I choose one and use it I will start swapping out my old bass rods each year(I currently have All-Star and really like them and have not had any problems....correction very few I have had a couple tips come loose)with new G-Loomis rods. My wife/family has trouble finding things to buy for X-mas each year and this would be a great thing as I would not normally spend that on myself.

Thx,Max
