If you had to pick one all around inshore rod.

[Scoundrel]

Was thinking about this today when I came home as I have way too many rods and always grab the same few:
1:lamiglas 7025
2: Seeker 702L
3: lamiglas 1143 cut to 7'6" with a 12 tip(old school S-Glass)

What say you?

[Skolmann]

I'd say whichever 2 you don't want-I'd be interested in buying :D.

I would like that 1143 for Blackfish :)

I have been fishing a new Penn Battalion Inshore since May.
It seems since picking it up I have fished it for everything, not sure if it will be enough for big blackfish , but its has worked great on stripers , and even better on fluke.

Before that my Go To were the Lami Inshore classic, and Lami Triflex 7030.
the Battalion makes them feel REALLY heavy as it is composed of way lighter materials

One of my favorites.... :D

If i had to pick another... it would not be a graphite rod blank. Graphite is not meant for the type of fishing we do most times. I would want a " nano-composite" rod blank in a 7 foot length. Nano-composite is not full blown nano-carbon, but rather a mix of glass and nano-carbon. This will offer strength from the nano -carbon, with durability from the glass. No worry when comes to lifting a fish over the rail, the occasional "high stick" and in the right action... you can also troll it too!

Just a suggestion. Have seen too many graphite blanks break from the slightest mistake.

If I could only have one it would be my Lami Inshore Classic.

Have to agree with Seamus. Used my Lami- inshore classic for Fluke, Stripers, & Tog for a few years. Finally started "specializing" now have at least two rods for each type. Somedays I seriously consider selling them all and just using the Lami. Of course I would still have to hold on to my Fin-S Tog stick! :p

I know most of you guys like the local and made in the USA rods and I have my share.
Last summer I bought a Shimano Tallus Blue Water series rod after trying out my brother's new rod of the same type. He had the MH, I bought the M (TLC-70MBBL) for deep water fluking. It was perfect for what I bought it for. I fell in love with this rod and have used it for 90% of my fishing over the last year for all inshore species. It is now my go to tog rod over my Fish Poison and Seeker rods.

Since I don't see Phenix being mentioned, I'll throw in.
I recently built an inshore rod using Phenix M1 blank and it seems pretty versatile.
It's got a nice bend and has good power, as well as being very light.
I've only used it on fluke and have not yet had a chance to use it for blackfishing, but I feel confident it can handle them just fine.

I use a old Fenwick pacific-stik, I think model # 1670-c rated 20-50 line. I have a penn 505hs on it now, that replaced a daiwa sealine 50h, 15 years ago.

I use it for everything, from fluke, blackfish, bluefish to yellowfin tuna!!!! I have had it for almost 30 years and it only let me down once, the top guide broke on a night bluefish trip 10 years ago. I put a new tip on and have not looked back since!!! It is not because I can not afford anything else , and I actually have many fishing poles but I always come back to the old reliable FENWICK!!! THE MEAT STICK!!!!

I have a Phenix Recon that Ive been using a lot the last year and while I love it, it's not perfect. Im planning on having an M1 build and think it might just replace my Inshore Classic as favorite all around inshore rod.
