Hey Everybody,

I am looking for a good all around spinning Rod. I have my eyes on an EXO spinning reel, but need a good Spinning rod for shaky heads, drop shots, and weightless applications. I was thinking about the Falcon Jeff Kriet rod. Has anyone used one of these or does anyone have any good suggestions for what I am looking for?

Thanks

Not familiar with Kriet's rod, but in that same $200 range are a lot of nice rods, such as Dobyns Champions, Loomis rods (higher end models like IMX and sometimes even GLX will be in your price range on sale and/or slightly used), St Croix Avids, and Shimano Crucials and Cumuras. If you want something unique than the Kriet rod may be for you, but if you want something that has some history you may want to use the "search" option in this forum for a ton of reviews on the other rods mentioned. Good luck!

Quality-wise, Falcon makes a very good rod. I can't speak for that particular model's performance for that application. You should be fine with any major manufacturer's 6'7"-7'2" M-MH power, Fast or ExFast action rod.
