hey guys, I am in the market for a bigger rod and reel. Right now I use a pflueger ultra light combo, but in several places I have fished I have found this to be inadequate. I unfortunately can be pretty cheap, but I am contemplating buying an ugly stik. I also saw at k-mart a brand called roddy hunter, which seemed ideal for what I wanted (a good rod for catching bigger fish such as catfish and bass) and the price seemed really low. I also saw another brand at sports authority called Calypso and the rod was called the Mako. Are these brands any good? Has anyone had any experience with them? I will be doing alot of catfishing this summer so bait fishing will be what I'm doing for the most part, though I may be doing some trolling. I don't want to spend $40-$50 if I can get something that would be as durable but cheaper [crazy] Please let me know guys!
