I am looking to purchase a New or Used rod.
Here is the deal. I fish the salmon in the fall mostly. Fish are 5 - 12 lbs.
Bait is a corkie with a yarn tied on by the hook, sometimes some roe tide on above the hook.
A lead weight is then tied on above the bait so it bounces across the bottom of the river.
I do not know what I need other than a good rod with some backbone to fight the fish. Please help me out.




Looking for a Rod, but a rod reel combo will work.

If you don't mind less $$, Berkley has some nice rods for around $80....medium and heavy 1 piece rods....around 8ft. In Loomis thats a 1021c, HSR1021 GL2 or GL3, magnum taper, great rod!

I have seen some people that have demo rods if there are any out there hit me up.

Check out my post on the Pflueger rods...good deal and they're brand new.

Second for the Berkeley Air IM7 rods. Cabela's has them on line. They make a 8-12 and 10-20 in casting and spinning in 8'6" length. VERY sensitive, lightweight, and very reasonably priced at 69.99. If your fish are 5-12 pounds, go with the 8-12 model - you'll have more fun and it will be more sensitve. Good luck.
