Kunan!
  Can't get 'em any more, and they fish jigs real well!  Just had two rebuilt.  15 years old, over a thousand fish, best $65 bucks each I ever spent.

  Used to be loomis, but with the change in quality, why pay the price.

My favorite rod is always the last one I caught a fish with...currently, that would be my 8' Lamiglass spinning rod.
  My all-time favorite comes from when I was a kid, a 5 1/2 foot Fenwick ultralight. I caught more species and numbers of fish on that one rod than any others combined - went through 5 spinning reels on that pole.

Right now my favorite rod is a G Loomis, it may change in the future, but I'll aways love my first Loomis. Boy I was drunk when I made that first post

If you can get your hands on a Sage 286 or 290 your search for the best rod will be over. Fished with a IMX 1086 for a few years and it was a nice rod but when I finally got a 286 I felt a lot more happening.
