daughter and step son wants to take up fishing, rod advice?
hi, i been fishing for about 12 years but i kind of have my own way of going about everything involved in fishing ……anyway my daughter who is 9 would like to start to fish with aswell as my wifes other son who is 15 …… he wants the Shimano Catana Bx Spinning Rod for his birthday next month and i was wondering weather this would be suitable for ledger and float fishing ?????????? and what rod should i get my daughter im guessin a fairly light rod but have been told to not touch the telescopic any recomendations!
hey man, if your stepson is comfortable with a spinning rod i would say yes that the shimano is a great great reel. if not i think that i would start with something a little less expensive like an abu garcia. which is also a great reel but you can get one of their cardinal series at the waley world for about 30-5 dollars. and for your 9 yr old lil one. i would suggest to get her a zebco 33 classic. to start with this is a long lasting easily used and very durable the 33 classic can come in a combo that usually runs about 30 dollars. well for the shimano if he just found the reel and not a rod i would suggest the medium action 6’6” shakespear ugly stick. it is an inexpensive rod that is very durable and will have many many years of use. if you add all this together it doesn’t add up to a small fortune it should all be very reasonable. man i hope this helps you out a bit. good luck good fishin be safe and remember to share the experience
