Last year G loomis discontinued their entry level E6X rod line at the $220 price point and introduced the GCX @$250. There is a thread here discussing the changes but basically, it amounts to a slight upgrade in components and a price increase of their entry level product.
Given the impending price increase (from $199 to $250) from Megabass of their Levante line, the "gateway" cost of fishing with these brands just gone up but more importantly, does anyone feel it's worth it?
Is Zodias going to become the de facto "entry-level" of the premier brands?..
