Well, I have come to the conclusion that my backpack/shore fishing will be done with my trusty zebco combo. So now this new one will be used mainly while in my inflatable on smaller lakes and such.
There is a user here selling a brand new never opened shimano sienna 2500 for $35 and a carbomax rod for $20. Seems like a good deal to me, especially with all the praise the sienna has been getting. But a part of me still really wants to try my hand with a baitcaster, but don't want to waste my money on crap.
Back to my original post, does anyone know what the baitcasting combo on the front page of the spring classic is like? I can't seem to find a product number/model for it. And I just remembered that I have $100 in BPS giftcards. Hmmmm
