I would get that little Shakespeare 7’ micro rod, I’ve caught 15pound rainbows at Rufus woods on it and they’re only 15 bucks!

The only problem I've seen with the Shakespeare rods is they don't seem to cast as far as higher quality rods. When high lake fishing sometimes far is better. Otherwise I have beat the hell out of my Shakespeare and there hard to beat

I'll add my  :twocents:, I'm very happy with my Okuma rods and Daiwa's are not far behind.

St Croix

My wife bought me a 4 piece St Croix, and I have fished four different high mountain lakes now. I use my Lamiglas for big water, but the 6'6" St Croix is my stream/creek/high mountain lake rod for sure.

Bass Pro Micro Lite.  Many lengths.   Very affordable.  I have caught several 12- 15lb stealhead and an 18 lb coho on a 7'6 noodle rod throwing spiinners. 
May that for which I prepare never come to pass.

I'd never purchase a lamisnap, i mean lamiglass  :chuckle:

What is even funnier is the G loomis guys on the river salmon fishing always going and sending rods in for warentee while my lamituffs keeps on catching fish.
Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone who did you wrong but instead you breathe, walk away, and let life take care of them.
