Rod Options?

Bassboss · 06-03-11, 01:21 PM

As some of yall know, my Cabelas XML broke, and it's replaceable under warranty. I'm getting it replaced probably this weekend. Cabelas said I can replace it with any rod at, or less than 139.99 (or more, I just pay the difference, but I'd rather not do that with other then about 10 15 bucks).

I've got it narrowed down to these (7' MH F, open to suggestions though, lakes are pretty weedy)

Cabelas XML
Falcon LowRider
Abu Garcia Verdict (If the EHS handle feels OK)
Shimano Crucial (if on sale)
St.Croix Avid (if on sale)

It'll be an everything but crank crankbaits rod, but the bait's the be using the most are as fallowed:
Senkos, Frogs, Buzzbaits, Texas rigs/jigs. I'll be spooling it up with 30lb braid.

Which rod do you think offers the most sensitivity (of the regular priced ones), most power, and best casting.

Thanks in advance!
