Too many choices for the new rod
 

Went to Turners today looking for a new stick for my Diawa LW 20H-C. I found several sticks that seemed decent but nothing really put it's hands down my pants and grabbed me in that way that says, yea, I'm what you're looking for.

I'm looking for something light weight, 6.5 to 7.5 feet fast action. Wanting something that will be able to rip big calicos out of the weeds, small to medium yellowtail, legal WSB, Halibuts ect. Ya know, kind of a daily driver of So Cal yak fishing (Yes I'm asking a lot of out a stick aren't I?)

So my guru of the yak and fishing So Cal off shore. What's your "GO TO"? And I'd like to keep it under $200.00 if at all possible. I'm not made of money and I can't get women to pay me for sex.

Shimano Tallus blue water series.

I Like The Shimano Teremar Southeast Edition from Bass Pro. have a revo toro on it and its my go to for anything i wanna throw

Sure you can! If this guy can do it....

Yeah, I have the M and the MH Teramar. I also have the revo toro, but struggle with the baitcaster still. Seems to be a good combo for the yak... but I'm too much of a noob still to know for sure!

G Loomis Gl2 BBR 964C or the 904C (8' or 7'6"). Light enough to have fun with bass, and a blast to land bigger critters on. So far, my biggest are a 150ish BSB, a 36lb YT, a 51lb WSB and a 45lb Halibut on that rod. They are about the top of your limit, but they meet your requirements. Not familiar with your reel, but I use mine with Calcutta 400 size reels.

that soundsgood, do you think they will have at Fred Hal?
:you_rock:

Check out the turners Californian series, I have a few of those myself, they seem to be decent rods for the money.

I can definitely reccomend the calstar 800xl or 800L or M...but those are out of your price range. Strong enough for bigger fish and light enough for bass and or rockfish, excellent rod.
