    Best fishing poles

    Wife asked me to make a list of fishin stuff I wanted for next season. Thinking of upgrading some rods this year. So used to the common Ugly Stik and the dependability. Anybody have some recommendations of a decent rod a little more upscale? I typically use a senko Texas style. Love my bait caster reels too. Looking for a good rod less than or around $100. Also does the fast tip or extra fast tip really make a huge difference?

    Re: Best fishing poles

    Honestly your best result would come from going to a store that carries plenty of fishing equipment and giving a few different rods a try yourself. Everyone has different things they look for in a rod and only you know what you want. Many brands and styles of quality rods can be had for right around your price range. I have some Allstars, Team Daiwas, XPS, Shimanos, and a few others and each is for a specific application and most were right around or under $100. Good luck and let us know what you go with.

    Abu Garcia Veritas best rod for the price. I have a very pricey spinning rod(ESOX) and i have a Veritas spinning rod and i use the Veritas more than the ESOX.
