What is a good sensitive rod out there for when the speck bite is not aggressive , but won't break the bank.

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$

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.

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

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.
