They have them cheaper than that at bass pro.. I think I paid $175 for my 300....I have mine on a 7' heavy GLoomis IMX Mag Bass series...Its a great set up for many different scenarios...not inexpensive by any means though. I like your style ensign...

I can't afford the good stuff, I like the American Rodsmith, Allstar or Castaways, 7ft, good bang for the buck. Med act depending on what type of fishing you do. Plus if I step on one I'm only out about $50 and not $250 plus. Cheap Charlie.  "$58.99--DANGUT" WHERE?????

I got 2 Curados a 200 and 300 for less than I would have spent on one retail, but I am selling them, before Isa chunks on in the water.

Actually I got 5 of them and a 100, all at $53.89 after the price match and the %10 discount for applying for a credit card. 3 or 4 will hit ebay where they are selling for $150+ and I'll keep the 100 and 1 or two of the 300's. No reds up here, few stripers. I'd like to pair one or two of them up with rods that will give me the most versatility. I'm thinking maybe a couple of medium heavy rods.
