Best Affordable BFS Baitcasting Rods on the Market from Aliexpress to Bass Pro Shops

thought i'd give everyone the complete rundown on which affordable bfs baitcasting rods i use and recommend for beginners who are new to BFS..
although i have several reels i'd probably choose over some of the aliexpress reels i've tried and used... i can't really say the same for the bfs rods from aliexpress...
i've had a few high end rods that were a let down.. mainly do to breaking from use.. yes i'm for sure hard on my gear but these kuying teton and berkley lightning rods can take quite a bit of abuse without failure...
they're light fairly sensitive and very capable for bfs fishing which is simply using small and light baits with a baitcasting combo...
i honestly could cover pretty much all the small baits i throw with all these rods except for the 522sul..
that's why i recommend it for small streams or creeks and only for panfish or crappie.. unless you just want to push the limits of bass fishing with super ultra light gear..
my first bass on the 522 was a two pounder so i knew right off that it was capable of catching nice fish...
the 632ul is the one i recommend as an all around bfs rod that can cover pretty much anything bfs..
the 661 is my favorite overall probably because i'm american and we just love our one piece rods... it can throw down to a 1/16 oz. but really it's sweet spot is from 1/8 oz. all the way to 1/2 oz. treble baits but i have thrown 1/2 oz. spinnerbaits with pretty good results..
i've even thrown the whopper plopper 130 on a few different occasions ..
the 6'6" lightning rod is worth mentioning simply because it's the cheapest rod locally or here in the US that is great for what i call power bfs and can also throw up to it's recommended 5/8 oz. baits ..
it's a great affordable rod that can throw from a 1/16 oz. ned rig all the way to 1/2 oz baits very comfortably ...
