Fishing Forum

Hello,

I'm still pretty new to fishing and was wondering if anyone can give me a few recommendations, I would like a Fishing Rod (2 Piece) and Reel (bait Feeder), Freshwater and Saltwater, $150 budget

I will be taking two fishing trips in a few weeks

1. Fresh Water, Pond , mostly sunfish and catfish

2. Salt Water, mostly Blue fish

What Fishing Rod (2 Piece)? (i need it to two pieces for backpacking purposes)

What bait Feeder reel?

What Fish line? lb?

What Fishing lures?

Sinkers? Floaters?

thanks

You are going to need two rods. There isn't a rod to do both. If you get one for blues it will be too heavy for sunfish etc. If the blues are small, you can run the risk of using a heavy 7ft rod for bass that will take a 12 lb. line. But you will want to switch out your line to a 6-8 lb. test for the smaller fish. But you may not be able to cast it too far.
Bass Pro has some nice rigs in your price range.
Bait is a local issue. Ask the bait shop in your area you will be fishing in.
