So I was in Sportman's Warehouse today and picked up a couple of Shimano Convergence rods. I was not in there to buy rods but ended up leaving with two of them paired with Shimano Symetre reels. Now I am wondering are these rods any good? They have pretty decent guides on them and seem like they will be okay. With a price of $39 apiece, I guess if I don't like them they will be good guest rods. Any thoughts? Opinions? Experiences?

Thanks for the help!

They are definitely decent for their price range. I would take over many rods in that price point. You done did good.

I have one it was given to me with a pfluger echlon on it its pretty good too short for my liking its a 6'M so I dont use it that much but when I do I like it.

So I finally tried out these rods and they are actually not too bad, not the best sensitivity but pretty good for the price. Oh and come to find out after I purchased them Shimano had a $10 mail in rebate on them. So overall $29 apiece, I cant really beat that.

That's a great buy at that price! They make great backup or bank fishing rods so you don't have to worry about your nice rods!

For 29.00 you can't go wrong .

I throw spinner baits and like lures on them sometimes. You got them at a great price! You should be very happy with their performance.

Thanks Fellas,

These rods now have a home in my truck full time, they will also be my travel rods, i travel a lot for work and alway like to take a two piece rod with me just incase. They are replacing a couple of Ugly Stiks.
