3 out of 5 stars Shimano FX Spinning Rod 5'6"   October 2, 2008
Nice second rod. Could have more line loops and needs a place to attach hook.


5 out of 5 stars Good rod, and great deal   June 27, 2008
This may be the cheapest rod you can ever find. Plus, it is distributed in sportsauthority stores, about 9.99 each. So you can try them in person if you have sportsauthority nearby. Many people doubt them just because of the too low price tag, which are cheaper than many children rods. In fact, they are really decent rods. In shimano's catolog, it even mentions that this series is good for light salt water fishing, which it does. I mainly fish in Long Island. My fx rods are no rust in guides after one year use.

I have three FX rod, 7' 6.6' and 5'. Because of their prices, I am not forced to take too much care of them. I just put them into trunk, and never worry about them. after 1 year use, there are no indication of any damage. I bought them, because they are good for friends who happend with me, and also want to try fishing. I used them too. they are sensitive, decent quality. I highly recommend them. Their too low prices should not be the reason keeping you from them.



2 out of 5 stars Poor shipping   June 5, 2008
The rod was shipped in two pieces an the lower shaft and the rod tip was sticking out of the box about 4 inches with no protection at all. Only an idiot would ship the rod this way. I will never purchase again from this company. You see that I am only a number and my account means nothing to them. I am still waiting for a replacement. Maybey I should not hold my breath.


4 out of 5 stars Great Value   June 1, 2008
Nice ultra light rod from shimano and you can't beat the price. If they would have offered a 6' UL rod I would have gotten that one but the 5'6" worked out just fine. The arctic grayling didn't seem to mind and they were a blast to catch on this rod.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome   April 10, 2008
The rods that I received were even better than I had expected. Very high quality, and at a very good price. Thank you very much!
