I just recently spent almost $200 on my newest bait casting setup, not exactly cheap but still not too expensive..  But I must say its been worth every penny.. super smooth, perfect feel with lots of action and back bone in the rod.

The reel is a Qauntum Code 870cx and the rod is a Qauntum 7 Foot med-heavy action rod.  Perfect for many different techniques and baits.

If your looking for a new baitcaster in that price range I would Highly suggest this one  ;D

i just baught an energy PT reel and put it on that rod(energy pt rod split grip 7' MH) and its awsome i love it!!!!!!!

Very nice.  

Ive been catching tons of smallies as of late,  Im getting up at 5am in the morning though and im gunna go after some largemouths all day and work in the new rod
