This was my first star rods purchase and will not be my last. It is a very strong and durable rod. Not very expensive for such a great performance.

Just had a chance to use the new rod last weekend . First trip and caught a sailfish and king on the 6 ft EX2050 C6 version rated for 20-50# which I matched to TLD 25 with 40 lb test. Great balance and feel. Also trolled a 10" large lip rebel lure ( 18 feet depth) for grouper /snapper. Nice rod tip libration when lure is performing correctly yet stiff enough that you avoid too much flex. I have switched to no rollers in my trolling rod guides (less issues long term and less weight) and this rod is the ticket. I am getting a second one this weekend if I can get it in low $100 range.

I used to stick with Ugly Stick (price point). After a friend turned me on to Star Rods, I now have 10 in my boat. 6 with AVET, and 4 with Shimano Bait Runners. Can tackle anything. You will not find a better rod for this pricing.
Pros
  • Great feel and seat. Looks are very appealing.
Cons
  • Many rods available, you have to feel them (boat show) to find what you want for specific task.
