My all time favorite was a Loomis 803 glx with recoil guides. Tip got shut in a rod locker though. The new replacement Loomis sent, 2017 version, doesn't hold a candle to it. Still a good rod though.

Another vote for the ALX Deputy! They are right, you can do almost anything with that rod. Especially with a SV Steez

if I have to pick only one rod to fish for the day, that’s it. Not much you can’t do with that rod.

Dobyns 704c extreme, a light well balanced workhorse of a rod!!!
The 704 is the only rod I have multiples of. It can throw a jig, worm, spinnerbait, or a trap with no problem.Originally Posted by ABE

You beat me to it! I have tons of high end rods: Loomis, Megabass, St. croix, Kistler, etc. My old BCR803 GLX has to be my favorite. Not a better 1/4-3/8oz worm or jig rod ever made in my opinion!!
Honorable mention: Megabass Nautilus
I have a Dream that I really like, and a Skipper on order. I don't know if you can go wrong with any of the ALX Zolo rods.

While I've got a couple of high $ rods, most of my really favorite rods were quite inexpensive and are now quite elderly. Shimano Speedmasters, a couple of BPS Pitchin Stick series, a Denali Jade, several Quantum Energy, etc. I tend to like a rod in the store, but when I get it out on the water, it can take me awhile to find a reel, line & lure combination to make me happy with the rod. And then, it's pure bliss!
He said it all!
My K2 765 with newer aldebaran on it (mine is the 2016 model currently) but if I wanted to go a little less expensive my Kistler 7'3" LMH Helium is great...I find myself tryign to fish techniques so I can use that rod....
Where are the BIG ones? When are we going?

For me, it's the 7'4"H Tatula Frog rod.
My Loomis NRX 854C always puts a smile on my face paired with a Revo MGX. Light as a feather and ultra sensitive. A close 2nd is my Dobyns Champion Extreme 745 paired with a Revo Premier.
