    Fenwick Elite tech worth

    I have 2 Fenwick Elite tech rods I may sell to a local guy but lost touch on what they are worth. Any ideas? 1 is the 7'3" crankshaft with black/orange blank and others just a 6'9" rod. Just looking for ballpark idea. Thanks

    If they are the newer elite techs, they retail for around $150 so I’d sell them for $100 each. If they are the elite tech smallmouths sell them for $125 just because they stopped making them and have a higher demand

    The older Smallmouth series Elite Techs with the olive colored blank are some of the best budget rods I have ever used. If your rod(s) are in good shape I wouldn’t let them go for anything less than $100 local pick up or $125 shipped. IMO the rod fished well above the price point of $150 and the feel and blank were better than some $250 rods out there.

    The Smallmouth series spinning models were something truly special. I have two of the 6'9" ML rods and they are one of the best spinning rods out there. One I use and the other I bought as a backup and the tags are still on it.
