well some how my rods fell against my garage door and wife hit the button this morning broke 3 of my falcon rods, i dont have alot of cash to replace them at the moment, anyone know a decent rod for the priceof 50 60$ , i know all the great ones but there all over 100$ but i cant afford that at the moment. i need to replace them so i can fish this weekend. don't want to buy garbage. need some 7' medium heavys and a med to replace.

I just bought a Daiwa Laguna MH 7 ft at Academy for 20.00. It's my very first bass fishing rod so I don't know if it's garbage or not. Just throwing it out there.

Go to academy and look at the falcon hd and the h2o ethos. I have an ethos nano for swimming jivs and have boat flipped 5 lbers no.problem. Dont get hung up on brands just look at the specs and materials on a rod and go from there.

dude look at powell diesel series. also check out the team daiwa t series. both r good rods and can b found online for around 50 each. i think basspro has their graphite series on sale for 30 right now. even those rods r solid.

They're isn't a rod under $100 that's great. That bin said academy dosent offer anything good but the Powell diesel is a good rod. I would pick that rod over any on the market. If you can hit the $100 mark then 13 omen. Also I would get in the trading post and find a much nicer rod for your price range. The new all stars are trash. I'm sorry to hurt some of your feelings but they are. The h20 express are just as bad. Try don't build them correctly.

Cabela's Fish Eagle 50. Great rod.


Fishing was invented so man wouldn't get bored between turkey and dove.

If you can get over the no warranty issue powell diesel is the best rod you can get for $50.

Also check the classified section. Plenty of deals to be had. I've seen falcon lowriders and various older shimano rods for that price.
