hey guys what are some good rods for under $150 getting the daiwa tat and need a rod to go with it for cheap. I have been looking at the micro magic's and the st. croix any other suggestions.

There are only about 150 rods that are great in that price range

13

Croix

Dobyns

Shimano

Lews

Fenwick

Abu

Take your pick...so many good rods in the low 100 price range

Powell added to that list also

Tatula rod. They're excellent and were made for the reel.

St. Croix Mojo Bass/priemer series, Lew's American hero is nice for $70, Fenwick HMX, Abu Veritas. All rods that I own and like without having to break the bank. Some people will say they have issues with certain rods breaking, but when you are only spend $70 or so dollars on a rod it isn't nearly as heartbreaking. Hope this helps.

I agree when I see guys going and spending $500 or more on a rod it is sad and if I had one it would never be fished with

I would get the Tatula rod to go with your reel.

I'm pretty cheap with rods myself because I don't want to get totally hung out to dry if my dumb self manages to break it just putting it in the truck or something, but I'm a huge fan of Falcon, I think I'm going to start spending a little more for their rods every time. They are made in the USA and they are super lightweight and strong and sensitive, check out the buccoo series!

Another vote for the tatula rod

Powell Endurance for 150.

I would like to add the St. Croix rage to the list. I currently have a spinning and am looking to get a casting rod soon. It has amazing sensitivity and have the perfect weight to not seem too flimsy. It can also take a beating. Also St. Croix has a great warranty. Don't be discouraged by the bad reviews, I have had mine for over a year and have fought a couple huge gar, catfish, and a few bass over 4 pounds and the rod is great with everything. It has a sensitive tip yet can still have an amazing hook set. 

Denali makes a very nice fishing rod also and who could leave out Duckett Fishing.

Has anyone used a *** and a loomis gl2? Any comparison good or bad? Thanks. Looking at getting a tatula and a bb1.

If you shop online you can get powell endurances for 150  and I would higly recomend doing these are some of the best rods i have used. They are incredibley sensitive rods, vey strong, and have fantastic warranties if something ever does go wrong, and they are absolutley gorgeous rod imo. I love them so much that im replacing my ducketts and even a couple St Croix LTB with them.
