Higher End Rods
Higher End Rods
I just ordered a Metanium MGL and I want to get a higher end rod for it. I am looking at getting into the Megabass line, what are some suggestions of rods I should look at from any of the better companies. I have a couple of G-Loomis and high end Kistler rods.
Re: Higher End Rods
What applications , techniques etc are you looking to use this rod for
Re: Higher End Rods
I'm thinking a jerkbait topwater rod. I have a Kistler KLX Crank, Rip and Twitch for that purpose but the tip is a lot softer than I expected.

Re: Higher End Rods
I know you mentioned Megabass but the Shimano Poison Adrena and Expride are both excellent rods. They will match visually and performance wise. The Expride has more models and the silver accents in the rod would look sharp with the Metaniums paint.
Re: Higher End Rods
That poison adrena is slick looking.

Re: Higher End Rods
You might want to take a look at the Megabass US Destroyer Oneten Special for jerkbaits and the Destroyer Otomat for topwaters. Both are great in their respective applications.

Re: Higher End Rods
I use a GLX 842 for jerkbaits and love it.
Re: Higher End Rods
I think a Shimano Expride 6’10 M or Poison Adrena 6’11 M+ would look awesome and serve you well
Re: Higher End Rods
I'm really leaning towards the poison now, but at the price of the expride and the amount of guys talking highly of them, I might have to get one or two to replace some lower end rods I have.
