I first looked at getting a Cherry Rod when I was about 10. It was around $9.99 and I wanted it for Xmas. Mr. Clause got me a 2pc Ugly Stik instead. Never broke the Ugly Stik and used it all throughout school and then 6yrs in the Army. My ex left it on our patio in San Antonio and it grew legs and got gone! Eventually I did too🤣 I am 52, it must be a good entry level rod
🤣🤣 I’ll go buy another ugly stick in honor of your rod running off
I've used a Cherrywood ultralight spinning rod for a few years and it's been great, that thing has landed hundreds of fish for me. Love that rod. I'm going to grab a casting rod (medium) version of it soon to replace a heavy power rod I have no use for.
They have gone up the last couple years. Used to be $20 everywhere, now they're $30 in my area. (Scratch that, they're $35 now.)
I've used Ugly Sticks most of my life (spinning) but wanted to try new stuff I got one of these.. was pretty happy with it, so when Wal-Mart had Lew's reels on clearance a few months ago for $30, I grabbed one, then went home and ordered a Cherrywood (7' 2 pc) from Amazon for $25 (spring 2024) really nice combo for well under $100 :)
I have one, first “bass” rod I ever purchased and that was three years ago! To this day it’s still yanking lips! I’ve caught countless fish on this rod and I love it. Of course I have better but I do still have this rod in rotation.. Honestly if it gets damaged, I’ll go replace it ASAP!!! Keep dropping these hits broski 😎
Does it have good backbone
@@jammarsolos most definitely does
My father bought me one 45 years ago, and it was my first pole. I still use it today. Firm enough to set a hook on lake fish species, flimsy enough to make it fun to real in.I bought one for my son when he was 6. We both have and use them to this day. It is reasonably priced and durable, and although mine is looking worn, i can't wait for a fish to break it because let's face it, we all love a good story and this pole has done it.
Sude note: this is not a pole that transfers a lot of feeling from the hook to your hand. It is IMO and excellent beginners pole that allows forgiveness when setting the hook with just enough firmness to know it is set. It is not a wet noodle either
I use a medium light Cherry Wood rod with an Abu Garcia spin reel and it works amazingly
I had these as a kid. Then i got into the hobby and got a nice reel and wanted to pair it with a cherry wood. But my local bass pro stopped selling these and I thought the “lightning rod” was a new update/replacement so i went with that and had stuck with it for years. Just saw a cherrywood in Walmart today for the first time in years and was excited to see they are still around
I’ve personally always had this belief of a cherrywood, the sensitivity of the blank makes it levels above many other cheap options. Use it for crank baits and you will appreciate the long handle rod for bombing casts and steady retrieves + a solid leaning hookset. The parabolic bend to it is also beneficial in using straight floroucarbon and still being able to keep the fish pinned with some give to your rod tip. Hands down worth the money man .
Yes. ^ 🤣🤣
@@LarryMeltonJr my dawg :)
I love finding Walmart rods on clearance!
Yessir!
I also like your style and feel safe watching your videos with my kids. You seem to have a great attitude
Your so nice I love your energy and helping people get started in fishing
Love your videos bro...I catfish and crappie fish myself but still enjoy watching your videos. Continued success
Thanks for the support man!
I've had the 7' for a few years now. I never used it much until this past year. I took it on trout trip to Cherokee NC. I put a Lews American Hero 2000 spinning reel on it and it caught all of my fish. I took it as a backup. It's a decent.....almost ultralight setup.
Great video brother. We got a huge 🥶 cold snap headed into Kentucky this weekend. Im hoping we arent done for the season up here. if so I wil have to live vicariously through you Southern guys!
Man do y’all get ice in the winter?
@@LarryMeltonJr Yea. first year in Kentucky we had several significant ice events. last year was a little milder. but forecast said this yea will be intense
@@LarryMeltonJr I’ll send you a DM on Instagram of a cool picture from last year
I used to have 2 Cherrywood baitcasters, 7 ft medium heavy for about 5 years. They served me really well and I would probably still be using them had my ex not snapped them in half. I will get another one just to keep in the suv for those times I find myself near a pond unexpectedly. great rods.
Abu Garcia is my favorite and fishing gear that I can afford I'm a big fan of Abu Garcia rods and reels 👍🏼🎣
I've many rods and 4 of them are Cherrywood's definitely a best buy. My Salmon Mooching rod from the 80' s is lite brown and has caught many Salmon. Fiberglass Fly rods are all the rage now but I got a Cherrywood out of a bargain bin back in the early 2000's for $6. Anyways hard to believe everyone doesn't use Berkley rods.
I have a medium heavy spinning berkley cherrywood and i caught a musky, some big pikes, a 4lb smallmouth and some dinks
I bought this rod today on a whim! I'm looking forward to fishing with it after seeing your video
Got this rod about 2 years ago. Been a good rod; I don't think you can go wrong getting one.
I love mine I actually got 3 at the local pro-am shop and they are great rods
sweet! good to hear man!
Wow, glad this showed up in the algorithm because I’ve been looking for an affordable rod, after the accidental breaking of one of my favorite rods😢. Thanks for the information, I’m now on the hunt !!!
Yessir I think this one is definitely worth the try!
The Ozark Trail $30, 6.6ft spinning combo is the best budget combo out there. The is light and sensitive (fast action) and the reel is way nicer than what you’re paying for. Check it out!
The lew's laser hs casting or spinning rod they are like $31.00 dollars great video
Man.... Love the work on the vids. You've earned a sub and a like my guy. Just bought one today....and a Abu Garcia Black Max too. Seems like a decent set up....for me....a weekend bank fisher.
I broke my panfish rod a couple weeks back, just got a new one from Dunhams. I think it's 6 ft medium Berkeley cherry wood. I have 2 of the abu Garcia vengeance rods and I love them. Paid 25 for my Berkeley.
You should check out the Ozark Trail casting rods. OTX I believe is what they're called. 6' 8" medium power. Grey and black with nice dual color cork on the grip. I picked up one last year and it's been my main casting rod since then, paired with a Piscifun Perseus.
Really enjoy your channel,it's helped me with a few purchases!!..can you review the Berkly Lightning Shock casting rod?..thanks
I think you should’ve used the general like you normally do. Watching you got me into using that every time I go out on the water
Good info and review bro!!! If you buy a rod or something we’re content about and you catch over a 4 lb on it will you sign it and send it to us . That would be dope
I like this idea!
@@LarryMeltonJr oh yes bro it would be dope
Larry have you ever used the alabama rig
“I can’t even talk, it’s so big” 😳😳😳
If you like the cherrywood you gotta try out the Berkley Lightning Rod too. The grips are meh, but they are surprisingly good rods.
I will check them out!
Have you ever used a telescopic fishing rod
Great combo
bought one today got it for $39.99 with reel and line
Can you do the Burkley lightning shock for a spinning reel
I still have a ultra light Berkeley cherrywood spinning rod
Review a lews lazer rod the ultralight one
All I know is I haven’t seen a bait making video in a hot ass minute…….. unless I somehow missed it
My first baitcaster rod is the Shakespeare excursion.
lol I got one and still use it!!
You should do some more Walmart rod reviews. I can't get the cherrywood rod Walmart says unavailable.
Yessir! They have a lot of interesting stuff in the store!
Cool video but can I tie on 50lb braid with a leader on it
Lews hs lazer rod pls 🙏
You won’t find a better rod for the money than the cherrywood line hands down
Have the 6 foot 6 medium it's not bad
W content if you don’t already have a video on it can you try out that orange Berkeley rod that was in the Walmart section
I like this idea i’ve never used one before!
@@LarryMeltonJr With heavy hooksets the clear reel seat nut will crack
Needed a good Shimano!!
use this rod and it’s caught me so many fish without a problem
It’s so slept on!
SMH, your Walmart has all kinds of stuff I want like the white and green Lew’s Xfinity rod and the Jeff Sprague Xfinity rods. Mine don’t carry any of those.
LMAO, I have 3 of these set ups. Cheap, but functional. Not my favorite, eyes break easily, and the black max is ok too. They last better than most 50 dollar reels.
You should get a pet fish 🐟
dude no joke i was thinking this yesterday 🤣🤣
Is that a medium or a medium heavy
What up bro you haven’t made any cool lures in a grip.
Everyone ask for these videos! I might have to make another!
i hate inflaton )";
Rod is heavy as fuck
