So I’ve been mulling over the idea of getting a 2 person kayak (tandem??) so that me and my boy can go out on the lake etc together and fish.
I would get a boat but I have a car so I’ll be sticking with a kayak for right now and it’ll be healthy to do.
What brands have you guys liked and that I should look out for?
I would like to be able to put on a small trolling motor to help at times.
Thanks guys for the responses I will probably pass on the reel and find something else a bit better first, I might pick it up during the spring sale if it gets down to 50$.
Now on to figure out which one I want now. Maybe the SLX, Fuego or something in the 200$ range
Saw this reel on sale for 75$ at bass pro, how do these things last? The reel feels nice as I put my hands on it yesterday.
Thinking of buying one but wanted to ask around first if I should pull trigger or spend a bit more on something else.
Lakemead is the only place that I've gone out to over here in Vegas. I have been to some of the city pond's that we have also. Not too much bass fishing for me yet.
Rainbows and browns mostly is what I target. I might just use my spinning reel with trout and the like and get a baitcaster for bass.
i'm sure that I can use my spinning reel for bass but this is just another way for me to spend money and learn something new.
Thank you guys for all of the replies, a lot of you are mentioning rods and I forgot to ask but how is a 2 piece rod? I see that most are 1 piece but I know that itll be difficult (If it’ll fit at all) to put a one piece in my vehicle.
I'm relatively new to fishing and am wanting to dip my toes into the baitcasting world. I live in Vegas so I will be fishing around here mostly.
Are baitcaster's an all in one reel for trout, bass etc? If not I have a spinning reel that I use for trout and the likes.
And any advice on which brand and model(s) I can look into buying for my first setup? Budget I want to keep is somewhere around 200$ give or take a few bucks (reel only) rod I’ll pay more for.
Thanks
