A buddy of mine is offering me two different rods but i dont know which one to choose. The Musky innovations rod casts up to 10 oz and says it is for crankbaits and topwater, but will it be able to handle bulldawgs? The reaction Strike says up to 15 oz but its a cheaper rod and i question its durability. I don't know which one to choose :/

He is also offering them at the same price, the innovations rod retailed for $150+ and the reaction strike rod was retailed at $110 at some smaller stores.

Last I know, the Musky Innovation rods uses Reaction Strike blanks... Its the brand name that brought in extra $$$ for pricing...

Take the musky innovations, it has fuji alconite guides and fuji reel seat.
The reaction strike rods have cheap guides and hardware. If you don't fish much the cheaper one is ok.
Good Luck,
