[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 26393, member: 324"] I firmly believe that a better rod (often times more expensive) rods catches more fish. I do not, however believe that the ratios are direct comparisons. I do not believe that you will catch 10 times more fish, with a $500 rod than a $50 rod. But I do believe with all my heart, that a better rod catches more fish. I have had every cheap rod in the book, and have moved up and up and up over the years. I got my first Loomis at 45 years old, and it is really something. I have had walleyes on, and they do that stiffen-up trembly thing, and I feel it 100%. I have never felt that before on a cheap rod. I assume the situation is similar for boats. You can fish out of a pontoon, Sea-Ray, Bayliner, Canoe, inflatable air mattress, Yar, Ranger, Warrior, etc. They all float, you can fish off of all of them. But a dedicated fishing boat works better, is laid out better, is more feature friendly, than a Mastercraft wakeboard boat. OH, and I have seen people behave like absolute dicks on about every brand of boat too. [/QUOTE]
