Hello everyone, this is my first official post on here after years of coming back to the site for advice/tips.
I recently couldn't pass up on an amazing deal my local tackle-shop hooked me up with, and in turn I now own a beautiful new Shimano Bantam. I know this reel deserves a baller pairing but, with so many great options out there (on top of the fact that I primarily use a spinning set up) I'm a bit lost. My first choice would be a rod in the new Megabass Destroyer P5 lineup/something JDM...
With that in mind, here are the exact specifications of the reel: Bantam MGL 151 XG; 8.1:1.
Which rod in the P5 lineup do you think suit it best? What applications are best recommended for the reel? What other JDM/Non-JDM options around that $300-$500 price range should I consider?
Appreciate all the tips/recommendations more than you all know!
Feel free to ask me for more information.
