Do you really get what you pay for? (Rods)

Cincinnati Kid · 10-06-09, 08:32 PM

Hey everybody! Long time reader, first time poster. :-)

I have been watching with great interest, and amusement, the threads on the classifieds forum about G-Loomis rods. I got me thinking.......and I said to myself "self, when you purchase new rods do you really need to spend ~$250 for one?" Instead of answering myself, I thought I would ask you guys on this forum.

When purchasing a new rod, is it a classic case of "you get what you pay for", or is there really THAT BIG of a difference between a G-Loomis (or any other "premium" rod) and the lower end rods?

Any input available on this subject is greatly appreciated (eg: construction method, feel, fatigue, warranty, etc, etc)
