I went on a fishing trip this weekend and I lost one of my rod & reels. Browning spinning reel on a 6ft Lighting Rod. Not only was it my favorite set up but my grandfather bought it for me. I still have a sick feeling when I think about losing it. I used mainly for crappie, fishing with grubs on jig heads, roadrunners, beetle spins and every once in a while a 4in t-rigged worm.

I've got a $75 budget to get a replacement. This is what I'm considering (mainly because it's only $50).

Do any of you know of a better set up in my budget?

Thanks!

(i just realized that I put this in the tackle forum instead of the rod and reel. Could someone move it?)

    Should be great for what you want to use it for.
