Which Rod?

[obifishkenobi]

I prefer a 7' medium action spinning rod with a 30 or 40 series reel my favorite right now is the Okuma Caymar; Field and Stream rated them the best reel for the money last year they are $40. I have always had to fish on a budget. I can not afford St. Croix or lamiglas rods so, I buy rods on clearance when possible some less expensive rods I have had good luck with are Berkly Lightning Rods, Quantam Affinity and the mid-range Cabelas rods. You can cast, troll or fish bait with them. The medium action has a stiff backbone for setting hooks and also has a sensitive tip for detecting bites. I like to use my kokanee light action down rigger rods for trolling cranks for wipers and flat lining for other species, they are Okuma 7' Celio kokanee pro paired with Abu Garcia black max bait casting reels. they are slow action and are a hoot to fight feisty Wipers on.
