I fell in love with a deuce yesterday till I looked at the price 458$$ most were 250. That would be breaking the bank for me anyway. Wright and McGill makes some nice sensitive rods for around 100$

Clampy 04-30-2013 10:34 AM

The most sensitive rod I have is a Waterloo Salinity med light extra fast. 165$$

Wright and McGills seem to break easy and warranty is very spotty. Anything Shimano and you can't go wrong. Convergence is $69 and a good rod with lifetime warranty and best part is over the counter warranty. No shipping back or paying repairs. Shimano Crucial is my favorite rod for money, good blanks, split grip and very sensitive. Lifetime warranty is hard to beat..

I have the Blair Wiggins Inshore slam rod from W&M and beat the crap out of it. I've had it doubled over straight up and down over the side of the boat with 30 plus lb jacks and bull reds. Seems built really well to me. I have crucials waterloos castaways falcons I like all of them for different things.

yep most of my rods are shimanos for that reason. I really like the compre series. They run about $100. I also have a st croix premier that I really like cost around the same

Check with you people at Railside cuz them things were high. They had some at 140 but the ones I liked were ridiculous

Clampy 04-30-2013 12:03 PM

I really wanted one too. Maybe they tagged them with G loomis tags.

BIG RED 1983 04-30-2013 12:07 PM

The guys at rail side are proud of their stuff try acadiana outfitters they had some Duce rods In stock last time I was in there

458 does not seem right for a Duce...they are jacking up the price at that place

mriguy 04-30-2013 12:53 PM

I paid $153 plus tax at Railside for a 7' MED Duce

Clampy 04-30-2013 01:04 PM

It was just one of them that was that high. I was playing with it and it was light as feather and when I found the tag I immediately started looking for a diamond incrusted handle or platinum guides. They had some 6'8 for like 160 but the others I liked were 250plus.

Hitinitdaily 04-30-2013 01:28 PM

I have a few Medium Light Duce Rods and they are the best I've fished!! Never paid more than $139.

RigRatNoMeaux 04-30-2013 01:56 PM

They have our full selection of our standard and high modules rods. The price range is from 139-250

No crap, it's like that everywhere. You have to pay for the things you get.

mriguy 04-30-2013 02:15 PM

Watching a show on TV right now called Gaff Life, had an advertisment for Duce rods

Clampy 04-30-2013 02:32 PM

That 400 plus must have been autographed by "W" ;)

primeaux 04-30-2013 02:42 PM

Bought a medium action Duce at Railside Saturday, and it was $139... The heavier actions were a lil bit more

Paul, what type of rod you looking for??

I am building some plastics rods on Castaway blanks that everyone that has one loves. The price is about $100 depending on what you want on it. Also building on a Mudhole blank. MHX SJ842. Great all around rod. A tops and tails rod if you will. They are about $150.

chief paul 05-01-2013 07:33 AM

Had 3 Allstar rods that was bought in 1978 made in America.2 shrimptail specials and 1 other.Felt every little tick.These were replaced by new ones ( not knowing made in China) and even they are holding up well,are not nearly as sensitive.

Clampy 05-01-2013 07:43 AM

I got a old school shrimp tail special. I really like that rod. They get a bait DEEP with that rod. That's the only All Star that never broke on me.
