Where to find decent rods in Seattle area?

[10Key]

Here's what I am looking for, a 7' medium light, 2 piece rod. I am looking to spend ~$50. I have been everywhere (so I think). Any ideas? BTW, cool site; I found it yesterday when doing some research. Thanks

If you want a big selection you could try outdoor emporium...they have a lot of rods, and a varying price range

I looked there last weekend and their selection of warmwater rods seemed to be lacking

Auburn Sports & Marine: http://www.auburnsportsmarineinc.com/sys-tmpl/door/ has a good selection.


I've bought about 4 crappie rods from Linc's this year. They have some really nice panfish rods in there. http://www.lostinseattle.com/LIS/spo...ingtackle.html

If all else fails I'd order one from Bass Pro: http://www.basspro.com/servlet/catal..._RODS_SPINNING

Thanks Slab, I'll try those places.

I have to counter Slabking's Bass Pro link with a Cabela's link.

Sup? 10 Key For Me I'm On A Poor Man's Budget, But Usually What I Do Is Go To Fred Meyer And I Get Black Shimano Open -faced Reels With The Trigger And They Are Fairly Cheap And I Believe They Come In Two Sizes And For Rods I Usually Go To K-mart And Check Their Clearance Section For Rods But Be Careful To Check For Defects. I Have Nice Set Ups That Can Deal With The Best Of Them!!!! Peace-badboy

Cabela's Pro Guide IM-6 spinning rods are very hard to beat at $39.99. I bought two for my wife last year and was highly impressed with the value received. With the shipping, you should still meet your budget. They do have 2 piece, 7', medium action available - along with many other choices.

Went with a Cabela's Pro Guide IM6 7' medium light 2-piece. Thanks for the replies.
