What are you buying when you purchase a new fishing rod?
« on: April 30, 2026, 11:38:16 AM »
Fishing rods can be very expensive with rods of hundreds of dollars and even over a thousand becoming common. Does a higher retail price buy better performance?

Not always and it's common for well known brands and labels to spend much more on marketing and promotion than quality materials and design.
