Rod and reel for my son
I would just grab one of the toddler setups. They have all kinds of super hero ones. Take him to bass pro/ cabellas to pick it out. The whole experience will be fun.

Is rod/reel aesthetics super important to you?
I would have loved to have bought that for my father. Just to see the look on his face. Would have been worth every penny.

Is It weird that….
I have a 6’6” medium fast bps casting rod. It’s easily one of my favorites. I just like the way it feels in my hand. Pretty much all of my other rods cost a lot more. i put a chronarch mgl on it and it’s great. It is was it is. We like what we like.

Is rod/reel aesthetics super important to you?
I wouldn’t buy any of the loud colored rods period. as much as I would like to say I only think about the performance. I would rather them not be ugly.

St Croix Legend Glass crankbait rod / Daiwa Tatula Elite rods
Bps carbonlite 2.0. 6’6” mf. It’s good for everything in its weight range. Great popper/jerkbait rod. Also great for light t Riggs and weightless plastics.

Wow, just got my first Megabass rod. Hooked
That description makes it pretty hard to not seriously consider that rod. For traveling light while pond hopping.

Better rod w/ similar action to Sierra line
Try braid on the sierra. I used to use a fury 705 cb with braid for spinnerbaits. It was my favorite spinnerbait rod until I broke it.

Shipping From T/W
The amount of orders they get every day is probably an unbelievable number. I would think if you pick the free shipping. You go to the back of the line, then they go in order. Express shipping orders jump the line as they come in. not trying to defend them or anything, but I’m sure the employees are stuffing boxes fast as they can all day.

Shipping From T/W
I get you’re point. But in the grand scheme of things this situation is mildly annoying at best. if it were me. Even though they charged my card. I’d feel like I was getting a present I didn’t know about.

Thoughts on this reel and if it’s a good buy
That’s pretty much what I was thinking. Not sure what the ci4 cost new. I have the chronarch mgl. It $280 new. If it’s in any kind of decent condition where a good cleaning puts it back in shape. It’s a steal.
