Re: LOOKING FOR NEW BAITCASTER
theres a few reasons,one being personal experiance alot of ppl will tell you on here or most any other tackle site that Quantum stuff don't last long,breaks often and easy and their customer service is noted as being the worst out there.Ill admit there reels look nice but looks aint everything,if you dont know Zebco the king of spincasters owns quantum zebco is a HUGE company so youd think that quantum (zebcos cadilac line) would be par none,but ask alot of guys on here or go read reviews on other sites and youll see what ppl go through with quantum reels breaking after 1 season ALOT of problems with gears grinding and then their famous customer service ;D ...thats just my opinion,im sure others will agree or disagree but you buy what you like and what works and performs for you i guess and for me quantum dont work or perform. yes ive heard of zebco that was my first reel. thanks for the info i was just wondering y such a bad wrap

Help with buying rod/reel for my husband
i too would go with the dicks employee's choice. You can use that rod for bass fishing. When i am goin out i usually take one reg rod and a light rod. The light rods can be alot of fun to catch a decent bass on. So yes it can be used for bass too
