[SHAFT]

What would you recommend for an affordable rod and reel set up for swimbaits , say no more than $100 for each $200 total !!!

This for a rod, h or xh

And this for a reel, 400 size

On that budget I dont think you can get a better deal.

Do I think its the best setup? No. But for $200, yes.

Try this combo......Daiwa heartland HL-SS 791XHRB about $70.00 and a Abu Garcia 6500 C3 reel About $79.00

What Steve said.

Except maybe for the reel I'd go for either a Calcutta TE or a Abu 6500 C4.

7'6" Pete Mania Muskie Rod coupled with Garcia 5601C4 reel

less than $ 200.00

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY FEED BACK ON THIS PFLUEGER REEL ?

Shaft. I have a couple of friends that use the Pflueger reel and like them. But for weight/swimbaits I would go with the Abu C4, they will hold up a lot better, I believe. Bill K

I use an Okuma Celilo CE-C-7101 with a Shimano Cardiff 401 that set up should cost you way less that $200
