For the guy who wants to experience next–level sensitivity, you can grab a durable budget reel and pair it to a high end rod and still fit the budget. For the guy who wants to cast a mile, you can invest in a higher end reel and pair it to a durable rod. Also, if $300 is outside your budget, we’ve already published $100 and $200 guides (see below). If you prefer high end gear, stick with us every day as we continue climbing the ladder of high end tackle.
Below you’ll find links to the exact rod and reel combos in the video. We’ve included our favorite models from each product line and our favorite reel sizes and speeds for each combo. All the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
