Default Cascade Pro Series Rods

Has anyone heard of Cascade salmon and steely rods? I saw them at Bi mart the other day and wondered what they were. The blank noted that the rod was designed by lamiglas. They were priced in the $50.00 to $70.00 range. The quality seemed to be in the G1000 blank range.

My wife works for Bi-Mart, so needless to say I do most of my sporting goods shopping there now. I saw the Cascade series rods a couple weeks ago, and was most impressed with the price. I checked on the Lamiglas website, but they really didn't provide that much information. I do know that they are made of lesser quality components than either the 1000 or 500 series rods, though. Anyone know how long they've been available?

I checked those rods about about a year ago..
I even bought one. (MH Baitcasting)
They seem like a pretty good rod, no complaints.
I asked the guy at Bi-mart about them and he said they were a rod made especially for Bi-mart by Lamiglass. He told me they were not available anyplace else. He did not know much else.
Try one, Bi-mart has a pretty liberal return policy if you don't like it. Just make sure you keep it clean and return it with the reciept.

I really dont like the rod at all, I broke one on a chinook this year the first time I went out with it. I really like the buzz ramsy rods about $80.
