I got a bunch of different brands. 3 Castaway,2 all star ,1 Saint Croix, 2 Falcon, 3 Fenwick,3 Pinnacle, 9 Berkely,2 old G Loomis, 5 Abu Garcia,1 Lone star, and 6 Quantum rods, and a few bass pro shop clunn & Woo Extreme rods. I would say that the Quantum Tour Edition HSX 54 rods are the best of the lot, except for the Castaway Bud Pruitt Flipping sticks. P N J

St Croix, G-Loomis, and Rogue. Favorite is St Croix, with G-Loomis a close second. The Rogue rods are about Identical to the Kistler's, they are nice, but give me my St Croix anyday over them.

Lizards

Lamiglas /201 SF Curado
Berkeley Cherrywood/Symetre
Rapala(this rod sux!)/Size 20 Sx6i (sweet reel) Looking to replace this rod
Lamiglas/Pfueger Trion (BC)

Maybe I ought to change my name to the Lone Lamiglas ranger! They are very sensitive and powerful. I handled a 7 lb bass amidst pilings and a dock as if it were a 1 lb dink. The Curado performed superbly too.
