I currently have a Daiwa Coastal, and 2 Falcon Coastal HD's.

I'm looking to purchase a new rod, what does the OB think? I've heard a lot of good things about Fenwick.

I fish mostly for reds/specks....

Any Of These

I have a Mojo Inshore and a Tidemaster that I use a ton. I would have to look at them bc I can remember the exact length & action.

I've got the St. Croix Triumphs for my baitcasters and the Abu Garcia Vendetta for my spinning reels. I like the St. Croix. I will probably change out the Vendettas eventually.

I prefer 7' medium action Falcon HD's for trout and redfish. Use them with casting and spinning set ups. Will be interested to hear from the rest of you regarding your preferences for more expensive rods.

G loomis pro green. I threw a hook spit rod the other day and I really liked it.

ETA: medium light

I have a loomis greenwater that is solid. That being said, my favorite rod for plastics/trout was the allstar shrimptail special

Any opinions on Waterloo rods?

Picked up a 7' Medium Waterloo Salinity to pair with a new Curado 200HG. It was really lightweight and I liked the shorter rod butt. Plan to use it for jigs and topwater.

As for split grip vs. full cork. . . I have both and use both- and they both catch fish. No preference of one over as long as the length of the grip isn't absurdly long.

I wade fish quite a bit, 6'5" Castaway Skeleton Wader Special Medium

ETA: The new Castaway Invicta with the Winn Golf Grips for handles look pretty legit

Has anyone here used the Shimano Compre? I've heard some good reviews on this rod.
