IS THIS THE BEST $20 BUDGET ROD AT WALMART??? 

My go to setup is a 7' Cherrywood with a Lew's Speed Spool 🤙

I have had one for about a year and they work great

The “Berkley Big Game Power Series” fishing rods. They are probably THE BEST AND MOST VALUABLE ROD for $25.00, they are made of fiberglass so they are GREAT for Flexibility and crankbait fishing. The Berkley Big Game Power Series rods are SO VERSATILE! They are 2 piece BUT they have an EXCELLENT uniform bend in the fiberglass rod material. The Berkley Big Game Power Series rod (spinning) was my very 1st fishing rod I got when I was 12 at Walmart (I’m over 30 now) and I caught my first “Big Fish” when I was 12 on it. I caught a 36 inch Tiger Musky right on the side of the dock at the bottom fishing with a lime green with black dots and a silver backing spoon lure. The Berkley Big Game Power Series fiberglass rod absorbed all of the stress and fight from the fish! It makes it really easy on your body because the fiberglass rod absorbs the fight so nicely. I have 2 Berkley Big Game Power Series rods and 1 of them I have had for about 12 years now. And it still catches big fish like the first day I got it. I am a BIG FAN of fiberglass rods. Because they last longer, due to their flexibility, reliability and durability. They have a little extra weight but I will take that over a snapped or broken rod just from “regular use.” My style of fishing is casting REAL hard from shore because I don’t have a boat. So I have to SLING my lures as far as I can, AND I NEED A ROD THAT IS FLEXIBLE TO DO THAT AND NOT SNAP. I CANNOT USE A ROD THAT IS BRITTLE, I NEED FLEXIBILITY IN A ROD TO DO THIS. And in the past I have snapped 3 rods because of my style of fishing. And they all snapped IN THE SAME SPOT… THE TIP! So I began asking”Why is that?” Then I did research and it all made COMPLETE sense and I had “The data to prove it.” Graphite is brittle, Fiberglass is flexible. And ALL 3 of my previous rods I snapped at the tip were made with… Graphite! And I would wonder why after they snapped I would look over at “Old and Faithful” (My Berkley Big Game Power Series rod) and wonder why that one does not snap when I load up the rod before a hard cast and SLING my lure out there… and it was because it was made of Fiberglass and I did alot of reading and Fiberglass is heavier but it is also MORE FLEXIBLE AND DURABLE BECAUSE OF THE FIBERGLASS MATERIAL. AND… FIBERGLASS HAS BEEN USED IN FISHING SINCE THE 1970’s! So there ya go! “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Clearly if Fiberglass rods have been in use since the 1970’s that means… IT WORKS… and for a good reason. And fiberglass gives you better feel and action when crankbait fishing and fiberglass rods will improve your hook up ratio because there is flex and bend in the rod and the fiberglass material when it bends from a fish will actually sink the hook in deeper due to the material and bend it has. September 2022 I caught a 41 inch Spotted Musky on a 7 foot (2 piece) Berkley Fusion Rod Combo (I swapped the reel and put a PENN Fierce III 5000 on the Berkley Fusion rod with 300 yards of 30lb Sufix 832 Advanced Superline with a light 12 inch Eagle Claw black steel leader). That Berkley Fusion Rod that I caught that 41 inch Spotted Musky on IS MADE OF FIBERGLASS. Has a great bend in that rod even for a 2 piece. Read my review on Berkley’s website in the Berkley Big Game Power Series rod section you’ll see the photos of that 41 inch Spotted Musky I caught. And I have some other nice size fish I caught. Another thing I like about the Berkley Fusion rod is that it has Aluminum Oxide Guide Inserts ALL THE WAY TO THE TIP. The only thing I don’t like about the Berkley Big Game Power Series rods are that they don’t have an Aluminum Oxide or Titanium Oxide Guide insert tip… it’s stainless steel which may cause slight line grooves from braid line over time. But other than that the Berkley Big Game Power Series rods are AN EXCELLENT VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY. The Berkley Fusion Rods are a great value for the money too!

You should review the budget hank parker lews 25 ,30 dollar combo

I love my Berkley Cherrywood rod! Came with an Abu Garcia Black Max spinning reel for $50 at Dicks Sporting Goods. Such a great combo, especially for the money!

I picked up a pflueger spincast, and it's actually super nice. I recommend it for your spincast challenge!

I just got my berkley cherrywood and i absolutely love it, holds up great Edit: mines on my baitcaster

I saw you in your truck on the way to bass pro shops !!!!!

I have a casting one of those with a black max and I think it is really good

I looked at one the ozark trail spinning reel and rod combo and the rod and reel felt pretty good

The Micro Series is the best budget rod. And the Excursion.
