Drost,
Which waterloo do you fish with, or do you have a couple for different applications?

cmdrost 03-22-2011 09:06 AM

HP Slam Mag with recoil titanium guides......I throw big baits 95% of the time

Disagree...I watched at least 5 Am Rodsmith rods snap in my boat alone..... I had one a few years back...snap!!!

Skeleton is crap.... Know of at least 12 that have broke...3 in my boat!!! I have only snapped one waterloo and it was doing something stupid...let's just say wharf fishing at night ....

I would use a All star or Falcon before any Rodsmith or Castaway!!

LaAngler 03-22-2011 09:28 AM

waterloo QC seems weak, only way i'd buy another is to pick from a rack of at least 10 or more

You have to catch fish to break a rod!!!!!

lsufish 03-22-2011 09:50 AM

I just spoke with Carson and pulled the trigger on a Hp Slam mag for big baits, and the hp light for everything else. Nice guy and very helpful. Thanks W.
