Quick take
Complete 5-foot youth fishing kit with fiberglass rod, pre-spooled reel, live bait, and tackle for first fishing trips.
This youth spinning kit pairs a 5-foot, medium-light, two-piece fiberglass rod with a size 30 spinning reel that comes spooled with 6 lb monofilament. The reel has a 5.2:1 gear ratio and works for right- or left-handed anglers, and the rod carries five stainless steel guides. It also comes with live-bait tackle such as hooks, split shots and bobbers, so a first-timer can head to the dock or riverbank for trout and panfish.

Skip if
