I'm looking for some rods and reels to replace my broken ones, + one new one. I'm willing to spend up to $50 per rod/reel and since I'm looking for 3 rods 1 reel that's up to $200 max.

First I'd like two bass/trout rods. I like 7' or so ideally (easier to reach around the kayak when needed), and prefer one piece. But I'm flexible. This is just freshwater stuff, fish probably won't get bigger than 10 pounds. I have two spinners for them already.

Next I'd like a saltwater rod/reel combo. Basically I'd like something like the Penn 500 + Ugly Stik Tiger rod. Nothing too expensive, Nothing I'd cry over if I lost it or broke it in my stupidity. I don't have a good eye for what a good rod/reel are, but I'd like to think a NCKA member wouldn't screw me over so I'll take it on faith.

I'm available to buy it on Friday night 6/6 after 5PM. I can do weekend evenings as well, but ideally would like to pick up at least one trout rod before Saturday or I'll buy one new.

I don't have anything specific so just PM me with what you have or post here and we can see if it'll fit what I want.

Bump- last call to sell me some of your unused rods and reels before I go through Craigslist and/or buy them new. After work tomorrow it'll be too late!
