Hi y'all,
I'm a novice fisherman.
I'm looking for a good cheap rod.
What is the best rod for $100.00?

There is no BEST rod, since what one likes in rods is subjective. TFO's
series 1 rod is a very good choice at around $90, as far as reels, I
would go with a Okuma sierra for about $35 (search on the net, you will
find one). The Sierra is a sturdy reel, it will stand up to even king
salmon.
