I just bought a new setup today over at the Kittery Trading Post.

I got a 6'6" Okuma avenger combo. Rod has a nice feel to it and the reel for being part of a combo is really nice as well. For $69.99 figured it would be worth a try. If I can get the same performance from a shorter rod I'll be very happy as the long downrigger rods that I have are a bit of a pain to deal with at times.

I'll let you all know how it performs once I get a chance to troll with it. The reel easily took 100 yards of standard lead core.
