hey,
I have a few lure rods already, but I'm looking to get a good quality, nice-looking lure outfit.

this is what I'm thinking :tu:

Shimano Anarchy 6'7'' light mediem spin 2 piece lure weight 1-10 grams- line weight 2-5 kilo $219.00

Shimano Sustain fj compact 3000 hg $449.00

or

Shimano Vanford compact 3000 hg $379.00

any thoughts? suggestions? does anyone have any of these and could tell me how they perform?

thanks,
fisho999

Both reels are good, vanford is lighter I think, sustain suits more for power fight.

I have a vanford 2500, it's a great reel, light weight and casts longer than your average reel. I wouldn't go 3000 size for plastics and lures.
The rod is nice but I would get a shimano Adrena

I'm thinking of targeting the medium species with this outfit btw, redfin, yella, small cod, flathead, etc. I hope this helps with the suggestions.

ill take a look at the Adrena and the 2500 senior. thanks

The Adrena/Vanford combo is more than enough and perfectly matched.
You can get the Vanford for $309 from Ananconda

dam, now your speaking my language

on enouther note, I think the adrenal is a bit pricey for me. The anarchy will still work though right?
