I just took my annual pilgrimage to bps. Closest one is 2 hrs away from me so i go once a year to load up. Anyway, they had a whole rack of abu garcia revo sx reels on bps johnny Morris carbon lite 2.0 rods for $159. Basically giving you a free $119 rod if you buy the reel. There were multiple gear ratios and rod lengths and actions. 

      I dont know if this is at all stores or not, but its a good deal if youre lookin.

I bought one of those combos here at my local BPS in Prattvile, AL. The Revo SX it is paired with is excellent. I bought mine in the 8.0:1 ratio. I did have a mishap recently with a Revo SX, but it was a clearance reel and not the one paired in the combo. I personally think the rod is...ok at best. It was basically free with that combo which is why I jumped on it and honestly for a free rod it’ll work. It’s not as sensitive as I was led to believe it would be with shaky head rigs which was my initial reason for buying it.
