Quick take
A fast-action six-foot graphite baitcasting combo with stainless guides for river and light offshore fishing.
This is a spinning rod and reel set built around a 6-foot, two-piece medium-power carbon fiber rod with a fast action. It comes paired with a 2000-size spinning reel with a graphite body and a 5.2:1 gear ratio. The split rod packs down for travel, and the setup suits bass and general freshwater outings for anglers putting together a first outfit.
