TackleDirect Silver Hook TDSSTS703MH / Okuma BTX-40 Travel Combo

Received Okuma reel only. Very well made for the price. Have not received travel rod yet, has 60 plus day delay. Hope to receive soon.

I had purchased the offshore conventional travel rod previously and it was well made. The case that that one came in and the case the present spinning combo came in are very nice. The current rod I am not that impressed with. The guides seem cheap and heavy. As this is an inshore light/medium rod, it make for a relatively heavy rod. It is too heavy for speckled sea trout fishing, but might be appropriate for larger fish, such as red drum or larger bluefish. I used my previous case and will use this one as well to put an additional rod in it for travel. Did I say I like the case? One good think about the case is the zipper goes the entire length and so TSA wont be cramming rods in a tube and breaking tips (I hope).

action id flawless and can not wait until spring to try it out, we still have cold and a foot of snow here.

Bought this combo for my daughter and she loves it. She lives in Louisianna and she and her boyfriend fish a lot. They catch a wide variety of fish up to nice Reds.
