I'm pretty new to kayak fishing and was wondering what rod to pair it up with?

I currently have a calstar 870 w/ daiwa seagate 40h

The rod would depended on what line you want to fish. I fish off boats but have two. One i fish 20 pound on a calstar 670L. And one I fish 25 pound on a 800m calstar.

Get the 2 speed
You can pick up a used one send it to avet and for about 30 or 40 $ they will replace all bearings and make it like new again

One speed with shimano Tallus rod. Rated 65 pound spectra. Perfect combo

1 higher gear is 6 a bit faster
2 low gear always nice to have
3 I'm sure he will go fishing from a boat
I know I will :reeling:
I have 8 avets only 2 of them are single

The coupon is good until 6aug

The big5 in el cajon only had the 2spd Sx in blue

Hope this helps!

I ended up getting a stealth 30 for 110$ aswell until I can afford something better.
