recommend a nice bass rod

At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

I use the shakespeare salt bass rod and seems up to now to be great shows every small bite so i use as a close in second rod for flatties and i always pray i get a bass. makes the long nights fun with some light rod fishing. also could stand in the surf for hrs as very light but strong.

Recently got a Penn Extreme Bass rod. First time using it today. It's a dream machine mate.
