Rod and reel opinions. ..

[Swaintrain21]

Wondering what suggestions are out there that guys are happy with and would recommend a guy purchase for pike. Spinning and Baitcast. The spinning would be the whole rig and just a reel for the baitcaster.

I did fine with an Abu Garcia revo sx and a wrights and McGill rod with 12lb mono. I upgraded to a Daiwa t3 ballistic and a irod gabes riprap special. I usually stick to a medium heavy rod with a fast tip.
