I’m looking to add a light-ish finesse rod to my 2-rod M & MH “arsenal” (ha ha) and am looking for something that will handle dropshots and lighter shakyheads (if I had to choose, I’d target dropshots more as my medium setup is workable for shakyheads…). I typically cast from docks or shore, and being up north, I'm not exactly catching hogs (yet)...
I’m not looking for the best rod out there, as I'm a pretty casual angler, but I don’t want a POS either. Hopefully this rod will hang around for a while.
Here are a bunch of rods more-or-less in my price range – for the higher-priced rods in the group, I would like a decent warranty if possible (haven’t researched those much, though).
- Dobyns Savvy 702
TFO Gary Loomis Signature Spin Rod 7' Med Lt
G. Loomis GL2 6’10” Mag-Lt – at the high end of my budget, but it looks great…
St. Croix Avid Spinning 6'9" Md Lt Xfast Dropshot
Pinnacle Perfecta DHC5 7’ Med Lt
Lamiglas Certified Pro XPS702
Thanks,
G
