Just asking some advice on what to buy for a nice rod and reel combo at bass pro for just under 100.00. I do mainly bass and catfishing and started to really get in to fishing just last year. All Ive ever bought was Walmart Specials. I received a 100.00 Bass Pro Shop gift card and am looking to spend it wisely. I know its not a lot to some folks, but here in Arkansas where the money is tight, I do want to spend it right! Any suggestions. And thanks so much for your time.

The Bionic Blade or Extreme combos are right around there and liked by many.

Thank you Sir! Will look into that for sure.

Welcome aboard!

Whatever you do, DON'T buy anything that's not on sale! For around

$100 you ought to be able to purchase MSRP around $150-$175.

The BPS Spring Classic is just around the corner.

Patience it is then...lol..thanks for the advice...

WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you Sir for the Welcome...

JUST BE CAREFUL < BPS has shown a habit of switching the rod and or reel with the combos, substituting a cheaper version. When you see what you want post it here, I am sure someone will help you check the item numbers for clarification

Hello and WELCOME! to the forums. I agree 100% on what RW says. Keep your eye on Basspro.com for sales. They always have combos with there extremes or bionic blades that are good. Good luck with whatever you buy!

Hey, Thanks for the Welcome, and to all the advice, I knew I could get it here, and once again, I was right on the money....you guys are great!

Just a little update, I went with the Browning Aggressor Spinning Combo. BPS had it on clearance for $59.00, marked down from $79.00. I kind of took a little of everyone's advice and looked around till I found this one. Even had enough left over to buy a few lures, seen a couple of the Gents from the BPS forum talking bout the sexy shad, and some of the nitro crankbaits, and got a couple of those as well...so hopefully before long I can jump in with some nice pics like the rest of you. Thanks a million for the Welcomes and all the great advice. Have a great weekend from Arkansas.
