Hi y'all,
I'm a novice fisherman.
I'm looking for a good cheap rod.
What is the best rod for $100.00?

I know there is probably more than one opinion per person on this,
but it should make some interesting talk.

Also, the best cheap reel.

We're talking trout fishing here.

I haven't felt a good rod in the $100 price range, but I own a Sage Launch
4pc 5w which cast like Sage's high end rods. Tight accurate loops at 60'
with 5wf line. I paid just under $200 and it came with a very nice padded
case with compartments and a lifetime guarantee. There is no obligation to
purchase if you want to try the rods out. I also wouldn't purchase a rod I
haven't cast first.
fwiw,
