I’m currently finishing up on replacing all my casting rods, including my swimbait rods. Jenko Savant 7’9” medhvy modfast 1-4oz and KGB 7’11” xhvy modfast 3-7oz both have Tatula 200 sh reels. Both of these rods are really fantastic, Extremely light just worth every penny, I probably read every review ever written on both rods videos on the rods I did all the research possible before I bought either.

@caseysaunders2137 Месяц назад

The Dobyn's Fury line at $129 might be a consideration for the TB community. The casting rods are spec'd mostly with heavier actions but a good option for finding veratile rods that can fish mutliple baits.

@NedRigNerd Месяц назад

You guys said the new Caius is $10 cheaper than the original. Well according to your link to Tackle Warehouse. It's $40 more the original. Because they are selling it for $129. Other sites are selling it for $79-89 but not $129 like tackle warehouse.

@brucenichols9206 Месяц назад

for $129 the SLX XT is a way better option pretty crazy

@texasvet7241 Месяц назад

The new Shimano Caius looks kinda funny. The poverty plate they used on the palming side reminds me of those plastic blanks they use on trucks that don’t have all the bells and whistles. They put a plastic blank where a switch or button would be on a higher end model.

@krisramos7453 Месяц назад

I live up north where I don't have too much use for heavier action rods. But I have a st Croix 7'4 heavy fast MOJO with an SLX reel braid to leader. It does all of my heavy action stuff without breaking a sweat.

@woosa42 Месяц назад

They did mention their $99 lfs, and the kvd reel in their last budget rod vid, but that was it. Lew's has some nice rods too, and they're durable. I don't get it either. Do they not hold up to the use that you guys put them through or what? lol

@mikek3638 Месяц назад

I buy 99% budget stuff or I get mid stuff on sale. I can honestly say that you can do any kind of fishing and fish well with budget gear. The budget stuff now performs very well. The rods might not be the lightest and reels won't cast the furthest, but they function well and last a long time. Cheers!

I go with the $100 rods and reel's is good for the average guy. I can find most of what I need for $100 or under. But don't have a $15,000 bass fishing Boat or more. The fish industry has got better for cheaper guys. ABU Garcia, Lew's and Ugly stick Like the Lew's LZR PRO medium heavy fast combo and the Lew's classic medium fast combo or ABU Garcia MAX Z medium heavy combo UGLY Stick carbon fiber combo medium for the money is good for cheap guy like me 😮 they just work for me. This makes me think of 35 years of fish I've done. Good video guys.

I throw bigger gomexus handles on them to get more crank and more comfort because the stock handles are a little small for my hands, but they’re super dependable… pretty cool Tim got your PB on it. 😁 Haha see that who says you need super expensive gear to catch giants? 🎣😎🤙🏽

I need your help guys. My buddy has been fishing with the same 2001 Med 7" Lightin Rod & (admittedly pretty good) 3000 Shimano Sedona spinning reel for the last 20+ years, mostly topwater , spinning bait and a frog. He says he is comfortable with the set up, he can cast a mile & he never has line issues or hook up problems. Which is all true, but I can't articulate to him why he needs to switch it up. We fish for bass on a Midwestern chain of lakes in SE Wi. and Im certain if I could explain to him in better terms he would see the benefits immediately after switching. Now he does have a few others he uses for crank baits, plastics and jigs, but that damn Lightin Rod is in his hand 75% of the time. Got any ideas what I should tell him? Thanks, as always, for the great content.

Kind of expected to see a Lews product in the budget line. Not sure I’ve ever seen you include Lews in any of your buyers guide. Can I assume you don’t think their quality is up to snuff?

I have a key question? I can’t buy one piece rods, can you guys recommend or make a video purely for travel / 2-piece rods?

Hey guys! So I know the point of this is to show stuff that is inexpensive that isn’t junk, do you know if any of these come in pink/purple for my daughter? I held a pink zebco combo at academy yesterday and it was heavy and whippy

They stay away from Lews in general, which should answer your question altogether. 😅

Hey guys I’m on quite the budget here but I can squeeze maybe two full combos out of my tax return this year. What two combos would you take if that’s the only two you had to use all day everyday. I don’t have the money to get a rod and reel for each action/bait. Please help i watch every video and im learning but I still suck

One thing why do the newer rods brake faster on the tips just by banging it on each other 🤔 the old one never happened that I've seen out of my hole family fishing for over 100 years that I know of ya in the window or car door or ramed it in too something else to break the rod tip off. Got a Lew's Xfinity medium light 6" size 10 reel combo on clearance $12 because the tip was broken off 2 inches 🤔 fixed it for $3 fix worth it. Now 5"10 rod
