I love my PA's. specifically the number of eyes on the blank. But what is a slightly lighter weight rod thats has
#1 more feel,
#2 be a little less of a broomstick
#3 that can still handle a 50

What say yee?

I've seen guys using yellow rods....what are they?

Tournament choice rods from Academy. I have caught 50lb fish on them, but i enjoy the backbone of my PA rods better. For 12 bucks yo ucant beat them. Wish they had a longer handle on them though.

Ive used all mentioned above but my personal favorite is the 8' white ugly stick. Great all around rod and has more than enough back bone to haul in big blues. Same price as the 7 ugly sticks and cheaper than pa's

Ugly Stik Lite Inshore 7' M 24.99 at academy right now and Ugly Stik catfish rod. But for big fish or fishing cover i'll put a PA up against any rod. You're going to sacrifice some sensitivity for power though. Said rods above will handle big fish in open water

Ugly Stik catfish 7' rods. Best all around rod I've used. Plenty of backbone for larger fish and softer tip for circle hook hookset.
