well it depends on if you have a fav rod yet, or if you need a certain set up, but the credit would #1 be fun, #2 get what you need, if you don't need the rod IMO...

i just bought a nice shimano rod from sports chalet last night. stinkymatt and greg andrews had convinced me that i should use a lighter tackle to attack those butts. mine is a 8-17 lb test and med fast action.
if i was you, i'd keep that rod and use it, for the price of three for $100 it seems like a steal. the one i got cost me $60 just for one.

I say fish the hell out of it. What reel will you be using? I've used rods like that with Penn 500s to catch tuna and YT. mike

That's my favorite rod for halibut. Sensitive enough to feel bite but strong enough to bring them up.

I agree, that is a good halibut rod.

Yeah, I think I'll end up keeping it actually. This will be my small bass and halibut rod
I'll mount my sealine SLOSH 20 to this rod
