Abu Garcia Max SX Spinning Reel and Fishing Rod Combo

Great combo for light tackle fishing. Spooled the reel with 6 pound braid and a 10 yard top shot of 8 pound mono. Perfect for throwing a lure or live threadfin shad for white bass.

Rod snapped on my 3rd cast. Never had anything like this happen before. My only guess is it was damaged during shipping. The rod and reel were just thrown in an oversized box with no filler so they just bounced around the whole way here. Wouldn't recommend

Smooth, very durable, value for the money I spent, rod and reel como is awesome, the function is awesome. My husband loves it!

This is a nice entry-level pole,, I'm not one to buy expensive fishing poles, all my poles have been Shakespeare's around $30 and I only do stream fishing, So spending the $70 was a big jump for me. The weight of this Set up, impressed me the most , It's very lite. Took this up to Lake Shasta for a week, was really impressed and satisfied with the casting/reeling. I caught fish with this every day, although they weren't big, a pound or less. I would recommend this pole and reel

I thought this combo was going to be great for the price. It broke down to travel easily, was lightweight, and the reel was smooth. Unfortunately the first fish I caught snapped the pole just above the connecter. This pole might be ok fishing in small ponds but it snapped pretty easily on a 5lb redfish.Update: I have updated my review to your. While the pole snapped, the warranty process was easy and my pole was replaced very quickly. I will use it for smaller fish. A+ customer service.

My grandson loves fishing, this reel rod combo is very nice. The only thing was that reel has no line spooled on it, I didn't realize that.

Arrived without reel handle aside from that it’s a really good set up this is my 2nd one

The end cap on the reel handle was missing upon arrival 3 stars for now but the reel and rod are perfect and smooth like butter
