Quick take
A Zebco baitcaster built for versatility with fast action and medium-heavy power to land bass, walleye, and catfish.
This Zebco Roam combo pairs a 6-foot 6-inch, two-piece medium-heavy rod with a baitcast reel that comes spooled with 12-pound mono. The fast-action tip and a 6.1:1 gear ratio suit bass, walleye and catfish with jigs, crankbaits and spinnerbaits. A split-grip handle and a DynaMag cast control make it a friendly step into baitcasting for newer anglers.
