I have friend who is looking to get into Musky and pike fishing some. He has come to me looking to what type of a set up he should get in to. Being mostly a fly fisherman and never having fished for either species, I figured it is a better question for the pros than for me to answer. He is looking to get a spin rod and reel setup and is hoping to stay under $100. Can he get a quality set up for that price? If not, how much more would it be? What rig would be good for him?
Then, on a personal note, are trout set ups conducive to fishing for pike and muskies (aside from the line)? Or do you need a more heavy duty rod and reel to deal with these fish than you would trout? Thanks for educating the ignorant here on this one guys!
