Fishin' Fool

What model of Savvy did you get?

I own one more as of today.

I'll second that. Nice rod.

I bought 2 Rages but sold them both. Didn't care for the handle. Abu Garcia Villain is $79.97 at Bass Pro right now.

I got over to BPS today I picked up the last ML. After a gift card and credit card points it cost me less than $35.

I just looked online, looks like you have to go in store for this deal.

It sounds like a medium would make a nice medium heavy in this line of rods.

I'm not sure if it's available online but definitely in the store at Bass Pro Shops.

Check out a Dobyns Fury for a casting rod. Very nice rod for $109. Also, I've found some Daiwa Tatula on sale online for around $100. BPS shop is advertising the Abu Garcia Villain for $79.97 this week normally $180.

I got my Bass Pro Shops ad today. I see they have the Villian rods on sale from $180 down to $79.97. Any thoughts on these rods? Given the $100 price drop I'll assume it's a decent deal.

Just accumulate as many as you can over time. I don't own a boat but fish in a bass club and I own around 10-12 casting and spinning rods in various lengths and power.

Probably a Stradic FJ.

That's a pretty versatile rod. It can be used for soft plastics, tubes, spinnerbaits, chatterbaits.

Thanks. It's on backorder so I have to wait a bit longer. But looking forward to it showing up in the next week or so.

No problem. Hopefully, they still have something left in the size and power you want.

Smitty I even found them on sale at Walmart.com for just over $100 which is even a better deal. If I hadn't bought a dumb Zillion I probably would own a couple by now.

Yah for your casting 8 slot you need something like Dobyns 735c in either the Fury or Champion line.

I think it is. Depends if the original poster thinks so. This is the same place I ordered an NRX from under $370.

$200 can get you a IMX at Monster Fishing Tackle right now. https://www.*.com/G-Loomis-IMX-Jig-Worm-Casting-Rods-p/g-loomis-imxbasscast-jwr.htm?e=Y Here's an example join the mailing list $25 more off.

Agreed. Based on feel alone felt as good as my Avid X. Hopefully the Avid X will perform better with a fish attached. Definitely considering other Furys at that price point.

Questions like what is the best casting rod are really subjective. Most people have favorites based on brand loyalty. To me the best casting rod is one I got a good value rod at a discounted price. BTW you can get an IMX from Monster Fishing Tackle for around $200 with another $25 off after you sign up for their mailing list. That is a good deal.

Sounds like you have a NRX coming. I still haven't got mine yet. They were out at OPS so it will be coming from the factory. Other than a mangled first guide how does the GLX feel?

Dude I get it. I bought 5 rods this offseason and constantly peruse the Internet for others. Just bring it back to all the shoes she owns. You'll defuse the situation

You can always save it for another rod
