Well I have some rods now. Going to more than likely buy 2 bait casters. My budget is $150-$200 a rod. I have reels. Just trying to figure out the rods I want 1st. Then match up with my reels I have. Just tired of keeping a bunch of rods on the boat. I will probably keep a couple spares in case of one breaking. I’m pretty good with bait casters. Been using one for about 10 years now. I really like Abu Garcia.
