Dicks Worm/jig Rod And Reel

[Brock Grigsby67]

Hey guys I'm going to dicks and I'm looking to get a worm/jig rod and reel! I was looking at the 7' MH field and stream Inferno with a pinnacle matrix. Does that sound like a good idea? My budget is $100

I just about have that exact set up. I bought the 7'.6" rod though instead. It's my only 2 piece casting rod, and it isn't bad. The only reason I purchased these items is because I was able to get a awesome deal on both of them. Otherwise I probably wouldn't have bothered getting them. I've used it mostly with braid as my jig rod in heavy vegetated areas. It hasn't let me down yet. One thing that sucks is that the line will get tangled at the tip sometimes, but that's no biggy. All in all it's a good purchase. If I may suggest though; if there is an Academy Sports near you, they carry the Diawa Laguna rods for $30 and the Diawa Exceller reels for $70 (originally $90).

I have the 7'6 too and I like it a lot.

For $60, I actually like the way the Tec-Specs feel. At one point, Dicks was offering a deal where if you bought a Skeet rod, you got a free Skeet reel!
