there are just to many options to choose from but the first thing you need to do if fugure out how much you want to spend because you can get a good set-up for around $100 but if you want a great set-up you could spend $500 if you wanted so the first thing is how much do you want to spend? Also it depends how you are going to fish for them if you are going to troll or cast. I cast alot so I would go with a 6.5 to 7 foot rod and a reel with a high gear ratio because when you are cranking them big muskie plugs you need to take in alot of line it just makes it easier on you.

looking at the price of that combo it looks like you do not want to spend a ton of money I was looking at that reel when I was at cabelas last it looks like a very good reel I know that the older garcia reel were very good because my bother had one on has rod. I would say that that set-up would do every thing you would need.
