Location: Brighton CO. | Our outfits have come a long way from when a lot of us old timers started. I would buy or least go somewhere were she can hold the rod and reel she's may want to buy. See what she likes then shop price. Today's rods are fairly light. I have rods up to Thorne Brothers $$$$ to a beautiful rod I found in the Cabela's bargain cave that 65 bucks then I had 30 bucks in points 35 bucks. So for 35 bucks it won't pull a double 10 or throw a pounder, but you can throw regular sized Bucktails, jerk a Suick or a 10 Jake reel in a Depth Raider or a top water. I have a Concept 13 reel A3 works great for a all around rig. This rig won't break the bank but a big fish won't break your rig. (I will handle any fish she may hook.) |
