Thanks for the replies boys. Looks like there is more than enough things that I can use this rod for and it wont go to waste! -Lewi

There are a ton of different rods in that $100-$150 range and I think it's mostly personal preference as to what you choose and not necessarily a "best" one. Go to your favorite store and grab a few to mess with.....it may come down to what handle you like best.....you never know! -Lewi

There are so many sweet swim jigs to choose from it makes my head spin. What has been awesome for me is the Gambler Ez swimmers like joedodge stated. I will texas rig 'em. -Lewi

Time to play around a bit here. I have a GSX Titanium 6'6 MH rod that I need to figure out what to use it for. Here is what I am currently using for casting rod purposes: Veritas 7'0 - swim jigs/cranks......my search rod I guess Veritas 7'3 - Flipping/Frogging Veritas 7'3 - football jigs/spinner bait/buzz bait My idea is that i use it for skipping jigs, some under hand roll cast stuff, target casting, and top water....... All the finesse stuff I am doing with my spinning reels and have been doing top water too which I suppose I could so with the 6'6....... Feel free to switch things up as necessary. -Lewi

I've had the Bridgestone Duler AT Revos on my older Tahoe and loved them...more noise than the Goodyear that were on there before but a great tire none-the-less. I know that it didn't really answer your question but I liked the Bridgestone's that I had.

Care to elaborate why?

*****UPDATE***** So, I have purchased a reel and I went a completely different direction. I had decided that neither the Hellcat or the Supreme was what I wanted with touching and what you all provided to me. I had thought hard about the Abu Orra SX before and after those options since I am a Abu fan but went a totally different direction. I ended up going with the Ardent Apex Tournament reel. Love the feel of the reel and really cant wait to get it out and flip some in the yard.

I do agree with your statement here 100%.

I see that I am getting a lot of quantum suggestions. Now, I have 3 Quantum spinning reels and they have been fantastic over the years but haven't ever owned a baitcaster. I have a friend that fishes a lot and says that they don't last as long as he'd like and he would suggest that I steer clear and go another direction...........?
-
Thanks for the replies. I will steer clear of the cheaper model Quantum reels.

Just saw the Quantum Hellcat baitcasting reel and thought hmmmm....... Now, I haven't been a fan of Quantum baitcasting reels but figured i'd toss it out there. My other thought is the Pflueger Supreme which I have heard some good things about. For me, these will not be overly used reels...not a tourney guy and usually get out once a week and 1 or 2 days on the weekend...kids sports dictate when I get out. So with that said toss me some thoughts on the 2 if you have any and if your going to toss out something else which I'm sure some will keep me under $100. -Lewi

Was checking this out at the boat show last weekend and I have to say you could have a decent size party on the front deck of that boat! Seems that color options are endless too. Nice ride!
-
This boat has taken me where I want to go, treated me very well, and I have absolutely no complaints about it.

Ready to get back in the water!!!!!!!
