Maybe make a trip out to the Bass Pro shop, or any other retailer and try some rods out for yourself?

Some guys like flex, some like the backbone. Sometimes their ratings are different then how they actually feel.

Just my 2 cents. :)

a price range would be nice.

Are you looking for a technique specific rod or an all around round?

x2.. had the opportunity to use it once off a friends boat.. this rod is the shizzzzzz... if you're throwing jigs, this rod will be a very nice one..

if the wifey would let me have a budget of $500.00 on a new rod, i would go straight for it.. plus its only $409.00 i just saved you 91 bucks
