If your new to fishing one of those combo's is all you need to get the
LOVe of fishing, as time passes and you do more and more of it, you will
want to upgrade your gear. Right now just start with a 30 to 50 dollar
combo (rod and reel sold together), you really won't know, or appreciate
the benefits of a 200 dollar rod , and 300 dollar reel, and at this time
I don't recommend them to a novice.. I know hundreds of weekend
fishermen who never cared about using more than a cheep combo, some have
been fishing 40 years
