fishdawg Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 so i noticed that Grimsby Tackle is having 21% 0ff all rods, reels & tackle this weekend. I am thinking about a new rod that can double duty for occassional drop shotting and for 3way rigging/drifting. probably a 7 footer? Thoughts or ideas? Budget is $100.

Luke V. Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Mark! A 7' medium fast is what your after as stated above. Brand doesn't matter. Pick your favourite and there are lots to choose from. For me would be a St. Croix triumph or a shimano compre. Good luck with the rod hunt! If your there on Saturday I might see you Edited November 9, 2012 by Luke V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Live2fish85 Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) If you can afford it, look at the St. Croix Avid. With that discount it will be a bit over 100 but well worth it as well. As said before 7' M fast will be perfect.

singingdog Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 I wouldn't go with a compre 7' M for dropshotting. I have one, and the action IMHO is not really fast enough for a dropshot rod: the tip is quite flexible. It is a great rod for light jigs and unweighted plastics, but not really a dropshot rod.
