Super User WRB Posted July 22, 2015 Super User Posted July 22, 2015 Make one great addition at a time and build your collection over the years. Best advice given. Good quality rod- reel combo will perform for years.Tom 1 Quote
Super User FishTank Posted July 23, 2015 Super User Posted July 23, 2015 I would buy just one nice setup at a time. Fishing has taught me patience and time is on my side. I would rather spend $400 on a setup that fits my needs than two set ups that get me by. Quote
kingmotorboat Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 I have a 7'1 medium heavy *** that I use for jigs and heavy t rigs and a medium *** I.use for light t rigs and everything else both casting. One thing I can say that medium definitely has some serious backbone Quote
illinifan4152 Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Quality. I wasted a lot of money the past couple years buying quantity when I should have just started with a couple quality setups. Quote
Super User DogBone_384 Posted July 23, 2015 Super User Posted July 23, 2015 I'd get two setups. Of all the reels I own, Shimano, ***, BPS PQ, are my favorites. As far as rods go, *** and Abu's Veritas top the list. I recommend handling them before buying. When travelling light I bring a M casting & ML spinning setup. Good luck & go with what feels best in your hands. Quote
Batson Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Well if you talk about quality, just go to custom rods.. You can get everything you want in any way!! Quote
Spryguy Posted July 23, 2015 Author Posted July 23, 2015 Thanks for all the responses!!! I got a 7'0 MH fast dobyns champion casting rod and a Lews tournament pro speed spool for Texas rigs and jigs. I think I have a great start to my fishing future 2 Quote
