Shawn, look for a quality spinning rod med action med power in the 6'8" to
7'0" length. As to the reel I highly recommend an Okuma AV-20 at about
$36.00

Hello :

I'm looking for a good rod and a good reel to dedicate to dropshotting.

The
rod and reel don't have to be the same brand. I'm looking to spend a
maximum of $120-$150 for both combined (ie. please don't recommend the G.
Loomis dropshot rod at $250 just for the rod !!!).

Also - what flurocarbon do people like the best ?

Thanks to all who reply.

Shawn

First, don't get a Rhino close-faced reel. Inside the case on the front, they
have some kind of plastic washer, that pinches your line and will not allow you
to cast.

Say no to fixed width tables. They look terrible in all browsers.
