Hi all.
I've do some commercial fishing and jigging, but I've never been much of an "angler".
I'm looking for a recommendation for a "do it all" rod and reel combo.
Whenever I've fished the banks and whatnot, we usually grab whatever is in the closet and go.
But now that my 12' boat is nearing completion, I'd like to have something that will stay with it.
Obviously, space is limited. About two rods is about all I'll have room for (mine and the missus).
Cash is tight (who isn't?). I know a couple rigs is preferred, but I can't swing that.
I've got two cheap mitchel spin cast reels on rods from somewhere (probably wally world or something).
I'd like to spend a little bit for a couple decent rigs but don't know what to buy. They're most for casting and sinking lures and baits, but it won't be live bait.
It's trout and salmon around here, but I'm military and could end up anywhere fishing anything.
Anyone have a combo recommendation for what is admittedly a challenging situation?
