Headhunter Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Ok, I have a new neighbor and he is coming to me to help in buy some stuff for redfish, flounder and trout. He bought some Penn 3000 reels, had Basspro load 10# braid and looking for a rod. What's out there in the $100-$150 range in like medium fast that's decent? I haven't bought a new rod outside of CCA auctions for 5 years. Thanks all and happy labor day weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fin-addict Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Redbone hurricanes 7’ 8-17 lbs or a 15 max lb. 15 may be a better combo with the reel size and line lb. he is using Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beak Boater Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 Have 4 Redbone Hurricanes and love them also. But my favorite rod inshore is a Crowder Rod. Fishing rods are all about feel to the person using it. I have Hurricane, Star, and Crowder. The Crowder feels balanced. They are built local in Stuart Fl, so you are supporting a local company. Check them out. http://crowderrods.com/rods/e-series-light/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishmanjj Posted September 2, 2018 Report Share Posted September 2, 2018 I would suggest Falcon spinning rods, depending on budget....BuCoo SR or the Low Rider Salt combined with the 3000 is a great combo. However, that's just my opinion based on my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, Star Stellar Lite, great inshore choice and I believe a life time warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flats Man Posted September 3, 2018 Report Share Posted September 3, 2018 I like my Star Stellar Lite rods, have a bunch of them in many sizes. As long as each combo is set up with the proper size reel, line and lure weight to match the rod size they will perform a lot like a custom rod. Surprisingly good balance and feel for the money, just keep the lure weight within the weight specified on the rod for best performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
