Hey Everyone, I am new to Idaho and River Trout Fishing. I have done small saltwater when I was a young scout but now I have caught the fishing fever again and want to get into it. My wife is getting me a pole and reel combo for my graduation gift (2 weeks from now).
So my question is as follows:
What rod and reel combo should she get for me under $45 - $50? We have heard the unbreakable myths of the Ugly Stik but I don't intend on bashing my pole against trees so that is not what is important to me.
People say I need something with fast action. What are your guys's recommendations? Links would help if you know the place to order it.
Any other advice is welcomed. Thanks in advance!
