Banshee rods?

[Deep C]

Always looking to upgrade or play with my tackle selection and came across Banshee rods... Anyone have any ? Input good or bad?

[paul708]

unless you use "the pocket fisherman" i cant see how that would be a upgrade

Currently using Shakespeare Tidewater and Ugly sticks in that slot and they are starting to age... My tackle works for a living about 200 days a year. My people are tough on tackle with them perpetually stepped on, kicked, beaten and frequently involved with fish. My good stuff stays in mothballs as they wouldn't last long in the enviroment my stuff lives in...
So tell me where they compare to stock Shakespeare...

[paul708]

they dont look as good as stock sharkspeare.. if you are happy with what you have stick with it.. ..you will be happy...... my "budget" stuff is a upgrade but a little more $ i just cant compete with the imports..

Deep C I have some of the Ugly Stick custom Rods. Best 59.99 I ever spent especially with all fuji components. Been tough as nails on them for,..... lets see this would be the 5th year. Not as tough on them as a charter client would be but they work great for the lil bit they cost. Looking to get (2) two 7' 15-30 spin for 6500 baitrunners for dual purpose rolls.

I'm running them and tidewaters now and the tidewaters are getting tired. I just went and got some more ugly...
