Thanks for the responses. Stopped at the tackle store we frequent in Bergen county on Friday. They were running 20% off if you bought rod and reel. My son wound up choosing the quantum accurist pt bait caster, paired with a Shimano scimitar 6’6” rod. We now have 3 of the scimitar rods, they have them for a really good price and we like them. He’s going to give it a few casts tomorrow if weather allows.
