So the Pfleuger Supreme might not be the correct match for a high-end rod?
-
Help! I'm looking to upgrade my beaten up Shimano Convergence 6'6" Medium action spinning rod to a more quality product. I own a 6'6" Medium action Browning Midas casting rod and LOVE it (for the folks at Bass Pro who say Browning should stick with guns--maybe that's accurate about their reels, but the Midas casting rod is ridiculously smooth...the boron makes a huge difference over graphite). So, I've been considering a Browning Midas spinning rod, but I also have my eyes on some of the other high-end rods ($150-250 range)--G Loomis GL3/Bronzeback, Falcon Cara T7/Lowrider XG, Fenwick HMG/World Class, St Crois AVID, or perhaps another Shimano...looking at the Crucial line this time. I'll probably pair it with a Pfleuger Supreme reel...great great value there. So...if anyone can provide any insight/advice, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Indeed! I am going to stand my ground on the Browning Midas casting rod that I have--all the meat you could need in the butt end paired with some of the best sensitivity I've ever felt out of a Medium action rod--all for $150 or so. I think I'm probably going to lean towards a St. Croix rod and the Pfleuger Supreme for my new spinning setup though. Thanks for the input everyone! Great to have a resource like this for bouncing ideas around.
