How many $600 -$700 rods do you own?
While thumbing through the MRFC 2007 catalog I was amazed at the number of rods that sell in the $6-700 range.
It started me thinking...do people actually buy several of these rods..ya'know a 3-5-7 wt or perhaps 2-4-6 wts in various lengths?
There are several reels that sell for about 1/2 of those rod prices...then you have to have a $60 line for each rod/reel. It wouldn't take long to invest some serious money in a 1/2 dz outfits
Bamboo does not count..
How many rods that sell for over $600 do you have.
Me...Zero

Me, zero, too.
I seldom venture past the $100 mark. But I would like to know what combination of performance and warantee motivates a person to pay that price. I only want to hear from those who have made that lay out. Second hand, discount priced, and contest rods, though they may have the MSRP, do not count.
IMHO a rod that costs over $600 should include a trip or at least a weekend getaway. :roll:

Second hand rods, discounted rods, raffel rods, and contest rods, though they may have once had the MSRP, do not count if you didn't actually pay over $600.
