Wow !! Tough one to answer.
Favorite fly-rod + reel has to be my 8' Phillipson Powr-Pakt
split cane rod w/ a Hardy Princess reel - if you've ever had a Princess, they make the most beautiful sound when line is being taken out. Takes one back to the "Golden Age"
when using this set-up.

My favorite is a Diawa 2500 Regal XL Spinning reel on a 6 1/2' Medium Action Ugly Stick. I know a lot of people like a heavier action rod, but I get plenty of power from the medium action and still have good sensitivity.

My favorite rod and reel is my pinnacle power tip pro rod and my reel is a sigma shakspeare. it is spooled with 10 pound line with 140 yards on it. I've took it in saltwater so many times it should have been done with 5 years ago. I usually fish in freshwater. I catch catfish and bass on this rod and reel. It is a very grreat rod

Hello. I fly fish most of the time so i own a lot of flyrods. My forvorite flyrod is a Heritage 3 wt. There aren't really big fish where i live. A 5 pound bass would be considered a big fish so i like light tackle.A 3wt. is perfect for panfish and i have fun catching anything on this rod. The flyreel is also a Heritage and is a ultra light to for the 3 wt. line it holds. So pending how big the fish are where you live buy the right size tackle for your area, you'll have a blast fighting your fish.
Thank you:
Leadwing.

My favorite be an old Fenwick 8'6 fiberglass steelhead rod that be bout' 40 yrs old, combined with an oldie but goodie 5500C Ambassador level-wind (baitcastier) reel. Sounds a little "cavemanish", but that relic has tagged more fish then the new tech., rigs I own annnnnd there be a lot of them ;)...
Am totally sure that ppl readin' this are shudderin' at the thought of FIBERGLASS, but what can I say, "she's still alive and catchin' "...

I pared up an Abu 6500 on a an 8' Lamiglas GBL961L that I built. Great light weight combo for 12-15# line. Use for inshore saltwater, light surf, and shore fishing for strippers. Very versatile.

I love my Shimano Stradic 4000 and my Shimano rod. Not to sure what type of rod it is. We bought it separately. Have fun fishing!

My fav combo is my Shimano Chronarch on a 6'6" MH G-Loomis GLX worm rod. It's so sensitive. If a bass even breathes on my bait, I feel it.
