    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.

    I bought Curcial rod at anglers outpost last year and broke it. They handed me a brand new off the shelf. Right over the counter. And if i rember correctly it didn't cost anything. And they are a great rod, light and very sensitive. All my rods are Shimano.

    I asked BPS how they would do the warranty and they said they would just give me one off the shelf.

    I like my crucial rod pretty good. It's by far my favorite crankbait rod I have. My only complaint is I'm on my 4th over the counter replacment. None of my other rods are broken. Thank god for that warranty replacement.
