Yo Scott.......

After seeing those two reels of yours last night....guess what I did? Yep bought the 6735! Now I need another rod. The one I bought from you last night I will mount the 6735. I "think" I need a 6'-6" medium rod for that 6730. If you have one email or call me.

Good spinning rods?

Thanks for the great response on the spinning reels. I went and bought the Pflueger Presidents 6730. Now I need a good rod that will go good with this reel. Any ideas? I'll use the rod and reel mostly for jigging and darter heads. May throw some flukes with it also. Thanks
