Still a classic
Have had my previous one (believe it was just a IX200) for about 20 years now and is still a great fresh water rod for a great price. I actually picked this one up for squid since you want a pretty light rod for that. For the cost you can't go wrong with this one.

My 5th or 6th shimano
I've been using Shimano quickfire combos since they first made them. The quality is great for the price, my only wish would be that they would make an upgraded version with more bearings for durability and to make the retrieve smoother.
ProsGreat price, easy to cast one-handed, durable for the price
ConsI get about 3 years of hard use out of the reel and it's time to replace it.

Very good choice
These are one of the best rod and reel combo you can get, I've had many reels that I've spent hundreds of dollars on and they crap out within months, These shimano reels last for years with heavy use. I've had other shimano reels that don't comapre to these in performance. These are the way to go

Shimano awesome as always
I ordered this combo and could not be happier. The shipping was super fast and This rod and reel work flawlessly together. Shimano has always made the toughest products I've put them trough abuse then any other I've own knowing they always come out on top and ready to go, this combo is no exception I would suggest it to any angler.
