    I think that seeing the warranty on any rod is just as important as the rod. Most rods are good in that price range anyway. JMO

    Check out the Shimono's I think they have a pretty good warranty.

    Shimano Crucial 7'MH very light and sensitive and has a lifetime over the counter warranty. I think BPS sells them for 139.99

    I still like the Falcon Cara, 5 or 6 power with length from 6-6 to 7-6 length for jigs for that price range, I have 8 or 9 Falcons. My other favorite is a Castaway with HG-40 Graphite, that may be at the top of your price range.

    And just what is an "over the counter warranty"? If I break one, how do I use the warranty? I have more Shimano rods than anything else but I have never heard of an "over the counter warranty"!

    Thanks in advance for the information.

    If say you buy a Shimano Crucial rod from Backwaters and break it, for a 20.00 handling fee they will give you another one if they have it. Not all Shimano rods carry this warrenty though.

    The shimano crucial is second to none in my opinion in this price range. It is well made, good components and great warrenty. Competes very well with my GLoomis IMX and GLX rods costing twice to three times as much.
