Guest steel'n'esox Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 For muskies I use the compres and prefer the longer 7.5 or 8.o fters, I have a 7.0 compre spinning rod on a 4000 symetre, which is great for jigs, reapers etc. that one is a sleeper, as well as the shimano 8.0ft heavy action TDR's which are no longer in production, they are cheap about 30.00 bucks. I buy them when I can find them, they are a great trolling rod for muskies, and will handle all the big baits.
GbayGiant Posted October 26, 2008 Report Posted October 26, 2008 (edited) Yeah, tough to beat the series one and lightning rods dollar for dollar, they are surprisingly tough and sensitive. My good old custom G-loomis is by far my best though, not just because it was the most expensive it really is the best quality, but I'll still never buy another when you can get 3 or 4 really good rods for the same price and not worry as much when the snap or crack eventually.

danbo Posted October 27, 2008 Author Report Posted October 27, 2008 I bought a GLoomis GLX flyrod years back. I got it for $300 & it retailed for $800!! I was afraid to use it & ended up selling it..
KelfuN Posted October 27, 2008 Report Posted October 27, 2008 i don't know if my okuma 13'6 guide select is a sleeper rod. got it for $150 i've tried other people's rods and nothing is comparable with how light the rod is. some people are saying its almost as light as the GLX.
