Okuma pro glt vs shimano tdr

[eafd30]

Looking to out fit the boat with some spring time brown trout equipment . Does anyone have any experience with either of these rods ? Both are pretty cheap as I don’t want to break the bank for such a short season . Thanks for any advice !!

I can’t speak for the okuma brand but I purchased every tdr I came across over last winters lou sales and I’m well pleased with them. I broke one last trip and one went overboard with no explanation, flutter spoon on the surface,out 30-40ft went to assist my daughter with a fish turned to go back to my rod?? LOL what rod gone!! Reel and all. Didn’t get to excited as they were cheap enough to just get another one out. Reel kinda pizzed me off but again second hand equipment.

I have the okuma down rigger and copper/lead core rods and I love them

I've owned tdr's for 20 years, caught my biggest landlocked on one. That being said, they are a club. Still own them and still fish them. Good rod for the money, not as sensitive as others. Good luck,  Matt

I've been using both... the okumas have a nicer feel but one of mine broke. The tdr's seem to be bullet proof.
