      Guide series inshore tournament rod. It's a great rod for topwater but I would say put a 4000 on it.

      I am going to agree with @coltsjesse I tried one of those out and it was maybe a $60 rod and corroded easily even tho I washed it after every time in saltwater. ...more I would suggest the gander mountain

      The best thing to do is take your rod to the shop and try it on different rods to get a feel how it balances out. The balance of a combo is a much bigger deal than ...more the overall combo weight

      Anytime. I've had almost every rod and reel on the market at one time or another so I know what works best for me but everyone's different.

      Shimano teramar is a good heavier rod. It's not as finesse as some others but has alot more power. Also shimano compre inshore rod. It's lighter and more ...more sensitive than the teramar but not as tuff

      I was thinking the same thing @QandQ_fishing_team and anything that's 120 and under
    19. corey cavanagh 0
      And what price range are u looking at for the rod?
    20. corey cavanagh 0
      Go with the 5000. Both 5000 and 4000 share the exact same body. The only difference is the 5000 comes with a much nicer handle and more line capacity
    21. Peyton Dalatri 0
      4000
    22. walkermaze 0
      Ok thanks! @theyakfisher 5000 or 4000 @QandQ_fishing_team

    25. Peyton Dalatri 0
      I have used spooks and skitter walks im sure it could handle it

      I've been looking at those for a while. They look really nice. Have you ever tried a big top water on it and does it walk the dog fine?
    27. Peyton Dalatri 0
