Josh,
What name brand is your 10' noodle rod?Where did you purchase it?
Jack, I get most of my tackle and equipment directly from various wholesalers. The brand of rod is a Silstar Cork Classic 10' noodle. It is a very inexpensive rod, I have seen them in shops for $19.95 during off peak times of the year. I got a really good deal when I found these rods and because they were so cheap I bought 4 thinking that I would have replacements if the rods didn't hold up to the big kings. Well I'm still using the original rod from 3 years ago and have since sold 2 of my spares to friends who are using them successfully. If you're looking for a quality brand rod with a good warranty this isn't for you. If you're looking to hook into some salmon and trout on a budget (like me
) these rods will get it done.
