    Re: Best rod?

    My favorite is still my first "high end" to me rod, the Daiwa Light & Tough TL-661-5RB...6'6" Heavy.

    Something about that reel seat seriously transmits all nibbles, grass catches, and rock nicks straight to my reel and hands. It could be the fluoro line or the rod, but you can feel it ALL.

    I own Kistler Magnesiums, but that Light & Tough blows them away...no marketing hype, just a great rod.

    AiRRUS Puls R , fantastic rod. I for some reason bought 5 new Kistlers this year and will see how well I like them. If I still like my AiRRUS better I will sell them and buy some more Puls R's. I heard that Garry Loomis and Ken Whitting ( Ken used to own AiRRUS , and they are both friends ) are planning on coming together with a new rod company. Wow , those two really know their stuff , I hope that is true and materializes...

    Feathercast Rod's get my vote as well. I am a custom rod builder and I bought one of Brian's at my show. Very impressive rod for the money.
