Hello newbie fisherman here.
I am looking to upgrade to a better quality rod and reel combo.
I learned and been fishing on a 8’ ozark trail grit stick rod and reel combo I purchased from Walmart for $50. Its advertised as a salt water rod but I’ve used it mostly for freshwater ponds/lakes near me and it’s served me well and I have managed to catch plenty of freshwater fish (large mouth bass, catfish, and different types of panfish). I been using the good old hook, sinker, bobber and juicy nightcrawler set up and have had good success.
I would like to start practicing and using different types of lures. I’ve been looking at this $99 Pflueger President Spinning Combo.
My main question is I see they make this same rod/reel in both medium 6’6 and ultra light 5’6. Which would be a better purchase if I’m looking to fish using mostly lures? Thank you!
