The Rooster Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Found this while just wasting time on the BPS site. Anybody looking for a deal on their first baitcast combo, wanting an extra rod as a backup, or just to give yourself another rod rigged up in the boat, this ain't bad. Aluminum frame reel, 8 bearings, 6.3:1 ratio, brass gears. MH IM6 graphite rod. 6'6" or 7'. Combo is $50. Internet orders only though. http://www.basspro.com/Bass-Pro-Shops-ProLite-Special-Rod-and-Reel-Baitcast-Combos/product/120829053232112/?cm_sp=COTWBPSProLiteComboMar2013_HM Quote
Flukeman Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 One of my Jr Bassmasters picked up this combo during the BPS Classic while we were there. I had a chance to handle it, and for $49.99 it was nice. At that price you really can not go wrong. I liked the feel of this set up in my hand better than the white Bionic reel and rod they had advertised for $10 more. This Prolite had a smaller profile and the rod seemed nicer. Quote
Super User lmbfisherman Posted March 21, 2013 Super User Posted March 21, 2013 I bought it when it was on sale two months ago. I like the reel, but the rod wasn't the greatest, but hey for 49.99 I think it's a good buy. Just have to take it out on the water. Quote
