New to fishing, what type of rod/reel for me and kid

[davetclown]

you can get fast action ugly sticks, "sencitive" as to weather or not they are on the shelf of your favorite or local store counter depends greatly on what the store's buyers beleive they can sell.

this may mean you need to do a little extra leg work or finger tapping to get what you like.

deffenantly give a web search to find the qualificatons of what is available before making a perchase, and with todays gas prices you may want to make a phone call before making the drive, just be sure to tell them if it is not there when you get there you will be going home empty handed, you dont want any substitutes.
