Took my middle boy out for dinner then we scrounged up a new rod and reel for him from Walmart to replace the one that went for a swim last week. He was able to get the same rod he had before and a better reel. Some of WM's "higher end" fishing equipment is comparable to mid grade stuff from the big box outfitters at better prices. I'm a stickler about rods with a light feel but enough backbone for a good hookset when walleye fishing.
