Best New Bass Rods & Reels
In Part II of the exclusive Outdoor Life Tackle Test, editors wring out the ’08 crop of bass fishing rods and reels. Which ones withstood the onslaught? Check out the results.
 We've put this year's new spinning and bait-casting rods and reels through one mean test-drive, narrowing the field to the 10 best rods and 10 best reels. These picks are aimed at bass fishing, but many of the models would work brilliantly to all kinds of species, from catfish to northern pike.

Well let me retrack my earlier statement.I didn't realize there were round reels left and abt 1/2 price of others. Now I know what to look for at the store if the g/kid's wear out the few I have had all my life.Kinda looks like my ambassador 5500C but with a bwetter drag system?? Way 2go!!guess I need to get off the rifle range more often. Carry ON!! YOC

if you havn't checked this article out then you need to.it has tons of gear,and good information.
The ABU-Garcia 704LX is one smooth and great reel for the price. I just purchased one and test casted it with my 8'6" St.Croix ML rod and was I surprised at the smoothness and ease of line flow with lightweight spoons and other rigs. A pro friend checked it out as was amazed also compare with his tourney gear. Great to find a good gear at a great affordable cost.
