[QUOTE="RustyTackleBox, post: 256419, member: 282"] BB doesn't need anything fancy, you want a medium moderate rod and let the boat and rod set the hooks for you, I have run both spinning and bait casters (abu silvermax, the old ones) for me it doesn't make a difference spin vs caster, but I have friends that swear by their casters... as far as how much to spend, get the cheap scheels rods in medium moderate ($50-60 if i remember) and your choice of reel spin vs bait... for BB you don't need a super light reel or anything amazing either, just look for a decent drag pfleuger president is a great reel for the job, BB really rely's on that spongy rod to do all the work. To be honest, I think the cheaper rods work better because they are so spongy like the ugly sticks but scheels will replace theirs every time your kid or drunk buddy steps on it. [/QUOTE]
