What is the best rod n reel combo for freshwater fishing?
Something not too pricey but not too cheap either. He is a 5 time a year fisherman also lol
Go to your sporting good store and pick a combo consisting of a 7 ft. medium action rod and a companion closed face spinning reel. Get a closed face reel because it is easier for a rookie to use. To cast with it you just push the button on the reel, hold it down then release it just at the right instant on forward cast. Easy. With a little practice he will figure out when that "right instant" is. Later on he will want an open face spinning reel because it gives more flexibility in the casting and line management. Nice birthday or Christmas present. Later he will want to graduate to a baitcast type of reel which takes yet more practice to kearn to use well. That's when things start to get pricey. He will be in college by then so he can buy it with his own money.
Somewhere along the way be sure that he learns how to use a fly rod. Start with an 8 ft rod with 8 weight - weight forward line. (BTW - Don't be tempted to buy a combo with level line. Level line is junk for beginners. He will want a better line real quickly.)
I should stop now because I'm getting a bit ahead of things.
Hope this helps.
I assumed that the rod and reel were for a youngster, but I just noticed your picture (I presume that is you) and Whoa! I don't think it is for a youngster. If so, he sure has a gorgeous mommie! So I must now assume that it is to be a gift for someone older. Nothing changes except that I would start with an open face reel not the closed face reel. You see the closed face reel says, "I'm a rookie" to all the other guys. If it is for your husband or your beau that may not be the message he wants to convey to his buds. If it is for your dad then, like me, he's old enough to have made his mark on this old world and he's past worring about such nonsense. Get him the closed face reel if he is really a rookie at this fishing thing or the open face reel if he has had some experience..
Good luck and good fishing - 73 from the Fisherman
