Cabelas fish eagle 50

Featured Replies

Any one used the cabela's fish eagle 50? Is it a good value or should I spend the extra $30-40 for something else. Looking at the 7' med 1 piece for throwing tubes/shakey heads on. 

I have an old Cabelas fish eagle II that I was given years ago with an Lews round reel.  It is a 6'6" medium and I still use it with a Curado I for lighter lures.  For free it is a fine rod, light and I do like the action.  If I had to purchase I'd probably spend the extra and look into a St Croix.  

 

Edit check cabelas, there is a Triumph X casting rod sale for the same price.  $69 is a pretty good deal, even if it is their low end line.  I've never held this exact model, but I'm headed to cabelas later this week to check one out.  6'6" M is 3.9 oz's! now that's light.

They have an updated model of the fish eagle that's $40 more than the old one I was looking at. These are Canadian $, so I may end up getting a shimano rod of some sort instead.
