| Looking at the Tackle Industries rods and which model would be best for throwing double cowgirls mostly, grinder spinnerbaits, and topwaters? |

Location: Lake "y" cause lake"x" got over fished | 9' TI HX. The XXH is to stiff IMO. the XH is perfect, can fling those baits with or into the wind without issue |

| Thanks. Any other rod manufacturer picks for around $150. I know TI have a good following for quality/value but like to hear others? |

| TI's are great rods for the money no doubt. The other best rods in the same price range IMO are the Okuma EVX rods. I have three of them and love them. You can't really go wrong with either brand if you ask me. |

| Quality wise you will not beat a Musky Innovations Pro Series. You can find a 8'6" H that would be perfect for bucktails topwater or spinnerbaits for around $150.
If you want one PM me and I can help you out

Bluffhunter,
Check out Tooth Tammer rods too. Bill makes a good rod for the money.

I also have a few Okuma rods I like.

Location: Minnesota: where it's tough to be a sportsfan! | I mainly run the TI's but have some Musky Innovations also, good rods. I just love the telescopic, split grip TI's for all around features. Can't wait to see what the new ones are like. |
