Mojoe Posted May 25, 2014 Report Share Posted May 25, 2014 I have had this only a few months, and it's just not my style of fishing, so I'm going to let it go. I have 10lbs line to string it and you are welcome to test it on the pond. Pole is a one piece 6', Cabela's bait casting pole. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/th_7A31AE12-B05A-4665-8FC7-D7493E1E23A3_zpsevde3yin.jpg This is a Bait casting reel. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l284/dsnowgod/th_42C974E6-7282-4DEA-BB84-9AF622F1D215_zpszovxxgux.jpg A true value in Abu Garcia reels, the new more compact Black Max™ reel includes a smooth retrieve 4+1 bearing system with durability to stand up to the max limits of hard core fishing.

nyall86 Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 How long is rod? Putty. This would be a great reel to get into a baitcaster. If you end up hating it I will take it off your hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XChris1632X Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 This is still available. What kind of power and tip is the rod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted June 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2014 I'm not finding anywhere that that info id talked about in any product description or review. I there something specific you are looking for to maybe point me in a better direction to answer your question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XChris1632X Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 on the rod itself it should say some along the lines of medium light, medium, medium heavy, or heavy. it could also say something along the lines as fast or extra fast describing the tip or the rod.

Mojoe Posted June 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 It does not. In the product discription on Cabela's site, this info is not there either. Nor is it anywhere I looked online. It's a Pro Guild IM6. I have searched and rephrased several different ways, and I was getting nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XChris1632X Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I'm tempted to pick this up from you Joe but the last thing I need is another ultra light rod that I don't use. I'm looking for a cheap baitcaster to learn flipping and pitching but that usually calls for a heavy action rod. Does the reel give a gear ratio on the side of it?

TurboRust Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 its a med action per the website http://www.cabelas.com/product/Abu-Garciareg-Black-MaxtradeCabelas-Pro-Guidereg-Casting-Combo/1739968.uts?Ntk=AllProducts&searchPath=%2Fcatalog%2Fsearch.cmd%3Fform_state%3DsearchForm%26N%3D0%26fsch%3Dtrue%26Ntk%3DAllProducts%26Ntt%3Dpro%2Bguide%2Brods%26x%3D0%26y%3D0&Ntt=pro+guide+rods&WTz_l=Unknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XChris1632X Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Good looking out Derek. Screw it, Joe I will buy it from you if we can work out a time to meet up. I will use it as a loaner set up. I don't mind giving you money for it, it's just going to be difficult for me to make it out there with having a newborn in the house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoe Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 Thanks, Derek. That is not a link I was getting, but it is what I was looking for. I didn't know so many other sites were selling Cabela's rod's. Regardless; Chris, I'm in the worthington/Dublin area often. I can bring it with me one day and we can meet up. Let's get the details worked out over the phone. I'll call you today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
