Which Fishing rod/reel to buy?
I am looking to buy a fishing rod & reel, I need your help. I have no idea which one to buy! I am a short woman, only 5 feet tall, 27 years old. I fish both in the ocean & lakes. Never deep sea fish, just offshore & such. I want to invest less than $100 bucks for both rod & reel but I want decent quality since the cheap ones don’t last. I am a beginner when it comes to fishing but I do have some experience. I fish for catfish, redfish, black drum, trout, ect. I am fishing in the Houston area. I would like a rod/reel big enough to handle a 20-30 lbs line. Is the Ugly stick my best bet, if so……which

This is a saltwater reel, so it can handle the salt, and can sure handle the fresh. Three different sizes. Get the 2nd largest. Should be good enough. Originally $62 but on sale at Bass Pro Shops. Get it while it lasts!

The 6'6 MH Shakespeare Ugly Stik should do the trick. Just around $35. It says you can't use over 20 lb. but you actually can. Just NO larger than 35 lb.
