If you were limited to 1 rod?
OK...Here is the scenario....you fish beaches, jetties and rocky shoreline.....you like to throw poppers, swimmers and rubber in 1-3 oz...you are limited to 1 rod.....What rod would you choose?

Strong and as versatile as any blank out there. Few rods have such a wide sweet spot. |

i love these types of threads. you get to see who likes what and the more popular rods. of course, there are so many variables not listed that truely recommending one rod is really hard.
personally, if i had to have 1 rod as the title was, it would be lami gsb1201m spin; second rod gsb1201m cast.
now, if i was to go w/ the lure range mentioned in the subject for the purposes listed, i may do the above blank as a spinner again, or the sb1213m as a caster. the second you mentioned jetties/inlets, you take several of the listed rods out of the equation. if it was a sand beach w/ bars or holes or a rockpile where there was not heavy water movement, some of those listed may come into play again.
all star does not make blanks anymore, so if you find any they were/are from when they were available. rainshadows 'su' series is about their equivalent.

I agree, one rod meaning not your favorite rod but one then can do it all. |
