I got a rod built by Reel Time Rods that is less than $100 that I would put up against any rod costing $150-200 as far as sensitivity and overall feel. Plus it was built to my specs for the way I am using it and the baits I use on it 100% of the time. You won't and can't get that with a cookie cutter rod.

I like the BPS Extreme Rods. Especially the way they can be balanced for whatever type of presentation you will be fishing. The balance stuff does cost extra though. Have too many of them according to my wife.

Have too many of them according to my wife. +1. Even a better deal when they go on special about twice/year at $69.95. That's all I've got in my arsenal.

The Falcon Bucoo is split grip w/ eva foam grips. For the money it is a great rod. About 90-100

You know the old saying
If it floats, flys, or f___s it is always cheaper to rent!
You have to decide which is more important.

Most will disagree with me but for a spinnerbait or squarebill rod you cant beat a Skeet Reese spinnerbait rod. Now for jigs or soft plastics Quantum Superlite rods are hard to beat and you can find them on ebay cheap. jmo

Most of the Carbon Lite at Bass Pro are about $100. Very good rods for that price.
