I just bought a 7'6" Powell Diesel casting rod from Tacklewarehouse. They had it on a good deal and I was looking for a new rod to use for flipping and frogs etc. Anyone have experience with this rod?? I know it comes without a warranty, but for the price ($60) I'll take the risk. I saw a lot of great reviews and not too many negative ones so hopefully it'll work out.
I'm also looking to pair it with a 7:1 gear ratio baitcaster I can put 50lb or so braid on. Anyone have any suggestions for something relatively cheap? I was looking into the $80 Lew's Speed Spools and they have great reviews. Any input would be great.
If no one has any information about the Powell's, I'll be sure to post an update once I use it for the first few times. It snowed here last night so obviously not fishing weather yet...but hopefully within the next few weeks...i'm getting super anxious to get out.
