Ok I’ve broken 2 rods at mead within the last 3 months. Now I’m in the market for a new rod. Mainly my fault by crank baits getting caught up then me yanking too hard then Snapo!!! [crazy] I also blame it on the increased flooded vegetation [:p]
I tend to fish way lighter then recommended. One rod was a 7’ MD Berkley Cherry wood 2 piece the other was a 7’6” BPS micro lite 2 piece. I know that both cases were my fault.
I logged in today to ask BFT’ers what rods they recommend from experience. Keep in mind my budget is under a $100 and the reel to be attached is a Abu Garcia Cardinal 101 spinning reel 6lb test. I will only be casting small/med lures with this set up. Thanks
Note - Yes I know ugly stiks are the greatest [angelic]
Unrelated Side Note - I hit the hole from shore last night and got devoured by bugs didnt matter if the light was on or off.[frown] I also C&R two fat crawdads.
