So I am looking for a spinning rod to use as a ned rig setup and I came across the Fenwick Silverhawk II Spinning Rods that are on sale but I am not sure if I want to buy it because close to 40% of the reviews are stating that it breaks easily, specifically the tip. I was wondering if anyone has or has had one and can certify the claim that they can break easily or not. Also are there any suggestions on any rods I should look at for fishing the Ned rig. I am looking for a medium light with a fast tip that is within 6'9" to 7'1" range. I am relatively new to the ned rig so let me know if I should be looking for something else in a spinning rod. https://www.cabelas.com/product/fishing/fishing-rods/spinning-rods/pc/104793480/c/104764680/sc/104836680/fenwick-silverhawk-ii-spinning-rods/2434191.uts?slotId=2 P.S. Budget is at $100

Hey, I have finally decided to join after months of just absorbing a lot of new information. I consider myself still a beginner with only about a two years of fishing for bass under my belt. What prompted me to join was to be able to have the opportunity to communicate with people that are as interested in fishing as I am. I am currently a college student who tries to squeeze in as much time into fishing as much as I study. My favorite species are largemouth bass but recently I have been seeing a lot of peacock bass near me and caught my first one this year making me rethink what my favorite species is. I hope to learn even more now that I have joined and be able to connect with fellow fishermen.
