best budget buy under $80
Unless a major deal comes up on a combo, so far it's come down to lightning shock cabelas tourney trail + president combo fenwick silver hawk on sale lews carbon fire rod still havent decided on a reel, probably the president or a shimano sienna or spirex, or a reel that feels nice in store and has a decent reputation. just as a sidenote, does anyone know when stores start to move rods+reels to clearance and have major outings on discontinued or old model items? or what is usually for sale on black friday? may be worth the wait to just save up for then, its only a month away

best budget buy under $80
i am a relatively new fisherman and love the information on this forum. Unfortunately, i'm also a broke a** college student and need to upgrade from my 10 year old $25 combo. I'm looking for a solid MHF 7-7'2 rod ( needs to be good for all around fishing, which is why i picked this), for under $80. I would prefer a solid $40-$60 rod, but if its a great deal will consider up to 80, so please refrain from the "spend $20 more and get a ..." as i really don't have the cash.. Also looking for a quality reel, same range. Any sales on nice equipment would be VITAL (and preferred), or any combos that offer a solid deal on rod and reel as well. I just missed out on a $60 sellus and sedona combo at dicks and am very ticked, so that is pretty much my standard for deals, I figured someon on here can help me find where the major deals are. Thanks guys, happy fishing

Ill check out that president BPG combo- i saw a president and cabelas tourney trail combo on sale for the same price- the tourney trail is an im8 rod.. does this make it much better? do you know which rod would be better in general, or are they pretty much the same rod with different brand labels? thanks

Thanks, guys. I definitely will choose spinning gear as it is the easiest to use and imo as good and a little better than a BC for most situations. eventually i will buy a BC for heavy braid so i can crank the huge bass out of the weeds at a pond i fish at, where the bass always bury themselves in the dense weeds. so far i've heard great things about the berkley lightning. I've felt both the original lightning and lightning shock in store and preferred the shock. 39.99 at walmart i believe. any difference between the two that's significant? I get my paycheck in two weeks, so until then i will be researching and taking advice from you guys on what would be best...I really appreciate it
