Actually, the best buy would be the combo which is also on sale right now for around $70. You get the 7 ft 6 in three weight rod along with the Prestige Plus reel and a 4 weight line and backing. I have one of those reels and it's a very decent reel. I'm sure they are made by Okuma as I have one of those reels too and the spools are interchangeable.
