I need some recommendations on a new baitcasting combo. Im looking for the reel to have a aluminum frame and for the rod to be 2 piece`s (for traveling purposes) mh/f 7ft will do. My budget is $150 but i $175 will also be fine. 

 

You lost me at 2 pieces. Not much of an idea there. I think the Daiwa Aird X has a 2 piece MH/F 7' but it's on the light side of MH/F. Pair it with a Fuego. $165 retail.

 

And idk where you'd get the 2 piece. I haven't even seen 6'6"ers. All I've actually seen being sold is 7' 1 piece models. But they claim they make the others.

They do have a 2-piece 7' MH/F as well as 7' M/F and 6'6" M/F. Fisherman's Warehouse normally carries them, but they're currently out of stock. Might have to wait a bit for them to get back in stock.

 

I've had a 1-piece Aird-X 7' MH/F for a couple years...it's not bad and has worked fine for jigs, spinners, chatters, etc. It's a little light, but not enough to worry about it not handling normal MH jobs.
