Default Quantum Rods

What does everyone think of Quantum's rods? I've heard they make great reels, but I've always been iffy about buying a rod made by a reel company. Don't know why, I just have.

Any opinions?

Oh, here's the reel I'm going to match my rod up with..

They're not a reel company. Their rods are very well made and light. I like them, personally.

Here we are, 2 days after we talked about you not needing any more rods, and you are posting again about new rods. I would suggest that we start ignoring this kid. He is flaming on here for the sake of it.

PS, the ignore list works.

I have the Quantum KVD signature series rod. Its a fiberglass crankbait rod that is only 70 or 80 $. For they money I like it alot. I was looking at their new energy rods, but I'm leaning towards the shimano crucial. I love Quantum but I'd have to order the rod off line, so I can't see it before I buy it and I need it now. But over all I think they make good quality rods.

Where the hell anywhere on Earth does Quantum call themselves a reel company. Sure they are well known for they're reels, but that doesn't mean they're a reel company! The reels kinda overshadow the rods, and that doesn't say anything about being a certain company. Get your facts straight, buddy.

Please post a picture of all of your rods. I would like to see the 14 rods and reels you have that are yours alone. I would also like to see them in your 14 ft boat.


That is all

First thing that reel is a crappie reel used on a jigging rod or a canepole. You have lost your mind. Show us all 14 rods and reels now. What are you thinking. Why do you post so much B.S.. Look at what i got nah nanah boo boo!!!! WTL i support you in this. I orignally stated it. I gave him a second chance. There is no third for me. Everybody we are dealing with a little snot nosed child. Please ban yourself from having anything to do with him.

Sorry, Senko, I always thought Quantum made reels before rods. They made thier rods first, but reels took over?

I always though Quantum made reels first too... I figured they just joined the ban wagon and started to produce rods. That is what I think.

I never said that, did I? Just because they make reels first doesn't mean they are a reel company. A reel company makes rees and only reels. Same with rods.

Yes, sorry my apologies. I've actually only had one Quantum rod and it worked out well, especially for the price.

look at the smilies he put in his first post. he's sticking out his tounge at everyone

i have about decided that this little douche enjoys the fact that he stirs up some people.
after the last bashing just a few days ago i thought maybe we had eaten one of our own and got the point across to him...but no.

banning yourself from him is prob the thing to do
