Strategy Spinning Reel and Fishing Rod Combo, Graphite Rod with Cork Handle, Continuous Anti-Reverse Clutch Fishing Reel

Got it used for $44. Was described as “very good” condition, but it was actually like new. This is not the world’s finest rod, but geeze I think that is an excellent value. The lack of cork on the upper part of the grip felt unusual at first, but was not at all bad nor uncomfortable. The reel is plenty smooth, though is not perfectly balanced (not an issue for me personally). The reels with 10 or 11 bearings are smoother, but this one is fine. The reel did make a very minor noise at times, but without consequence. The rod action seems as advertised: medium light. So, it will probably feel stiffer than a ultralight rod. The rod sensitivity seem good to me. Casts well, as expected. Spooled with 6lb mono. I think 8lb would also be fine.

Smooth and easy casting

Has been a good experience, super light and feels like what you'd expect.this rod is does ultralight better than it does medium so be aware of that. (perfect for crappie and white bass, can handle big largemouth and will make it a battle lol)

Got this for my son for Christmas, came neatly and cleanly and all in working order. Can’t wait for him to test it out this summer.

I bought this because I had friends coming into town and need another rod so everyone would have one. Got up early and went out to the lake only to find out the reel was corroded throughout and that it was impossible to turn the handle. After further inspection it was obvious that this was a retuned item that was then resold. I can’t even express how frustrated and embarrassed I was. I went without fishing that day and let my friends reel them in, but what a bummer to have gotten a total piece of junk. Returned for a refund, but still doesn’t make up for a messed up day of fishing.

It's a deadly set up I would buy again an again it's so smooth an with braid its one of the best poles I have seen out here as a set up combo I been fishing for 30 years an this rite here is well worth the money hands down

Action of reel is good, however there is a hook loop on the back of the rod that constantly catches the line. I guess they never actually tested this before putting it to market. Disappointed, this was my sons first reel for himself.

I use these for bass and Crappie. I cast thousands of cast with very little issue.

c long avant davoire des new j ai envoyer le 2 mai par purolater

Sur réception j'ai trouvé le moulinet petit. J'ai déjà un un grosseur 20 et un 40. Celui-ci est plus prêt du 20. Mais honnêtement à l'utilisation avec du mono 12lb dedans. Je l'aime bien. J'ai remonté plusieurs barbu de 6 à 8lbs la clutch à travailler mais au final le tout ce comporte bien comme une canne médium fast et un moulinet 40.Le seul bémol c'est que pour jigger au fond il est difficile de percevoir le fond.Je l'acheterais à nouveau. Pour le prix c'est bien. La seul place qui trahi sont prix c'est les oeillets de la canne sont visuellement de bas de gamme et crochissent facilement à l'impact.

I like the fishing rod and reel
