jammer Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I've been using Streamside rods for the last quite a few years... Guaranteed for life and i believe there not much more then $100... Available at Angling Outfitters in Woodstock... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ainsley Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I have a st. Croix wild river 9'6" casting for bottom bouncing and throwing hardware and a quantum cold water 10'6" for floating. The st. Croix is too fast for floating but they may have other models that are a more moderate action to suit both. I'd also choose an avid over the wild river if you can find one in sale.

outdoordude Posted May 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Ok would you say 210 for the avid 10'6" is a good price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ainsley Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 That's pretty good. What reel are you planning on using with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
