I have a couple of their spinning rods that family members use and no complaints here. I do have four of the older Limited Edition Berkely rods from back in the early 90's the were good rods.
My son has 5 or 6 of the spinning rods and I use them for walleye. Nice poles.
Still have a 6' ML spinning rod from 40 plus years ago. It is the only rod I still use from that era. Has caught a ton of fish from sunnies to pickerel to bass.
I actually like the LR spinning rods. Very good rod for the money.
Been using them for years and they are great rods for the money
have an oler UL cherry wood, great rods for brookies and panfish
Yes. They are the real deal.
Good rod for the money. I use one sometimes, nice and light with good feel. Minor complaint if I throw it most of the day, the hard plastic on the reel seat rubs a blister on my finger. It's just an oddity on the way that I palm the reel. Still use one though.
The new spinning rods are really nice. I have several now that have replaced rods that cost 4 times as much.
I have no complaints. Actually stopped buying more expensive spinning rods bc I like the lightning rods better. They are light, and just feel good to me. If u break a tip off no big deal buy another. I do not like the lightning rod shocks. Couldn't give me one of those, but the regular one I think is great..
Been a fan of them for a budget rod. When I travel, I have 2 of them I take with me. They do their job quite well.
Been fishin' since I was 5 years old...Thanks Grandpa!
Use to be my favorite utility rods but durability has went
down over the years imho
The older ones with the black foam grips were great rods fot the money...still have 3 or 4 of them
Yes, I like them. Will buy another when needed.
$29.99 at the BPS Spring Sale next month ... just sayin'.
For those of you who might be thinking about sneaking in to buy one, you might want to pick up a set of these so nobody can shame you. Send $59.99 (cash) in a plain envelope to Bilgerat Industries Incognito Disguise Offer, P.O. box OU812 New Jersey
Ranting incoherently
I'm old enough to remember when the Lightning was first introduced. I
think they were 39.95 back in the day. That was a high priced rod in its time.
