I know its not a Japanese rod, but the G. Loomis SJR842 is the best spinning rod I have ever used.

I have the GL3 version, but I see it is also available in the E6X line as well. is a 7 foot fast action med power rod with a fantastic taper. rated from 1/8-3/8 oz. lures.

either one would be within your budget.

just an idea. Good luck with what ever you choose. there are a ton of great spinning rods out there in that price range.

I second this! The NRX is out of this world, but this is a very, very sweet rod

Just a hair out of your range, but you can pick up a green NRX 803 or 872 from tackle warehouse for $337. Don't know what techniques your looking to use the rod for, just figured I'd mention they're on sale since you're looking.

This would be my recommendation as well...

I think the classic SJR 782GLX has to be on the short list, unless you have to have the longer rods that are so common these days....

Really tempted on on the loomis's but not quite sure if I wanna spend that much just yet.

One sweet rod!!

I may have missed it, but have you stated what your desired application is for this rod? That might help identify the best for you.

I am looking for something between 6'8 med and 7ft med.Probably be for weightless t-rigs,weightless senkos(under 5 inch),and some dropshot.

I will be putting my stradic ci4 2500 on it.

The NRX 822 DSR is possible the best drop shot I have used and it doubles as a light shakey head rod for me though many would argue it is too light. The 852S might fit the bill nicely for you. I believe they make both those rods in their cheaper series as well if the NRX is out of budget. I think you would be happy with anything from the IMX series on up, and I have heard the new E6X rods are nice for the price point.
