What rod should I get to go with Team Daiwa Sol bait-caster?
I just bought a Team Daiwa Sol bait-caster and was wondering what rod I should get to match with it? I was thinking of the e21 carrot stix but have heard some bad things about them - although they are light and match the orange color of the reel. I bought my Dad a Shimano Crucial for his Stratic Ci4 and its is really nice - super light and sensitive with great power. I have been looking at the Shimano Cumara but it is a little more than I would like to spend. Looking for a light, sensitive rod to worm/jig with 6'8" M fast action for worming is what I prefer - what would you recommend?
Look for a rod that's spec'd like the Loomis MBR782C. That's actually a great rod, but I'm guessing you're not wanting to spend 250 (IMX version) for one. The GLX is even pricier at 315. Anyway, you should be looking at something that's rated 17lb or UNDER on the top end. The e21's are nice, and they've addressed the problems they had with guides and paint etc. Those issues were from about 1 1/2 - 2 years ago.
The Shimano's are pretty good for the money, and the Crucial is actually a good rod. I'd go with the CRCX70M or the CRCX68M or the CRC610M. I would actually stick to the Extra Fast offerings in the Shimanos. I don't particularly like the way they were labeling the "fast" and "extra fast" rods. They seemed to be a little under-rated. I think mainly because they're comparing the rods to the other rods under the same label, as opposed to all other Shimano offerings as a whole. If NOTHING else, at least compare them before buying. There's nothing like getting something and going "What the h*ll?! That's not right!"
