new rod?
Hey Guys, I'm looking for a new rod, I previously have a rack raider, but its not as stiff as I would like it to be. So I was wondering what rod you guys think I should get? Its gonna be used for bass, bream and other estuary species.

Cheers Fisho

maybe $120 MAX, and about 6'5 to 7 fts, and when I say stiffer i mean not very flexible but not too stiff aswell.

Cheers Fisho.

Check the Daiwa Tierra rods, I think they are in your budget and not bad for the price

I just checked out the pfleuger Trion tournament they look alright. But, the thing is that pfleuger is made by shakespear and I never really been a fan of shakespear. They tend to be brittle and snap alot from my experience, is the trion more reliable then the older shoddier ones? and also thanks for everyone for responding early

Cheers Fisho.

Pfleuger are great rods and are exceptionally durable in my experience.

I just read a thread about this rod and it all been positive responses. So, keeping that in mind, despite my experience in the past with shakespear, I think I'm gonna go with the Fleuger trion tournament. Thanks for all the help

Cheers Fisho.
