Buyer's Guide: Best Spinning Rod and Reel Combos Under $200
Finding the right rods and reels can be very overwhelming! In today's Holiday Buyer's Guide the guys from TacticalBassin show us their top picks for rod and reel combos that cost less than $200. You can find some amazing options in this price range for new and veteran anglers alike. Which models are the most sensitive? Which reels are smooth and reliable? Matt and Tim help you find the best options available in today's video.
Spending $100 on a rod or reel is the threshold where you start seeing huge leaps in technology. The reels become smoother and lighter while the rods become more sensitive and action specific. Since this is the threshold where most anglers advancing from beginner to intermediate tend to purchase, companies often strive to put products in the category that defy their price point. This is great news for the angler looking for the best equipment at the lowest price!
In today's video Matt and Tim focus on 3 combos. These rods and reels stand out from the pack with great sensitivity, actions, and features that rise above the crowd. Below you will find these combos linked in order of appearance. They'll include direct links to Tackle Warehouse where you can see the specific models. To make it even easier for you this holiday season the guys have also included their favorite models from each line of rods. Below that you will find recommendations from a handful of other brands in case you or the angler in your life prefer a specific brand.
