What is the best $200 or less rod?

Featured Replies

I have the Mojo 6'6" MF and I think it's just about perfect for the topwater poppers, small/medium jerkbaits or spooks, and even shallow crankbaits in a pinch.  It might be a little overpowered by a rattle trap, but could probably handle them (especially the 3/8oz versions) just fine.  I didn't see the need to spend the extra money for an Avid, Powell, Crucial, etc... for the sensitivity on a rod in this application, since I would see or hear the fish strike a majority of the time.

roadwarrior, why the 6'8" MXF over the 6'6" MF?

Roadwarrior kindly pointed this out to me during the last Reed's clearance of Avids. I bought both. The MXF is good for plastics and jigs. The MF is good for treble hooks.

Here's a thread from a while back that landed me two Avids which have been awesome.  Those two rods cover a majority of my fishing for the past couple of years.
