What's your budget for the new combo? If we know your budget it will narrow down a more specific rod/reel.

So far I'm really happy with my st croix mojo 6'6 medium fast action spinning rod,especially for what I spent on it.I paired it with a old mitchel i had left over but that will be the next upgrade when it is in the budget.I will say I was hesitant about the split grip thing but after my first long cast I really liked it and it felt more natural then expected

My budget is about 80-100 bucks if there is a nice baitcaster that will fit that and fit my needs for all around good i would love to know.

In the 80-100 dollar range the BPS Pro Qualifier is hard to beat. It's based off the Revo platform as are the Lew's reels.
