Looking for Rods

[Buoy-Master]

Looking for a few rods to put in my collection.</p>

Castaways or All Pro Rods. 6-8" to 7-5" Med Heavy and Heavy.</p>

 Billy, Pro Lures of Dalton has a great selection of Castaways and they sell them really cheap.</p>

What's so special about those brands? G Loomis and Shimano Crucials are great. I've never found a castaway I liked.

After spending a few days with those brands, I like them..plus they seem alot lighter than the Shimanos. Well..they are lighter. </p>

Just trying to see if I can get a few deals here is all.</p>

check with Phil @pro lure he'll cut you a deal if you ask him...castaway does make a very good rod for the money ,but compairing shimano,G loomis and castaway is like compairing apples grapes and oranges...much better than shimano, not as good as G loomis...IMO

Let me be more specific. I have tried many brands of rods and spent way too much money. If I were to buy all new rods I would have 2-3 G.Loomis Mossybacks for application where sensitivity matters. The Jig and Worm series tapers are just un-matched in the industry. For crankbaits, spinnerbaits, etc I would probably buy several Shimano Crucials. They are light enough, sensitive enough, and very durable. They are also sold in a lot of different places.
