The reel is what you should spend your money on
ETA: same with inshore unless you're just chunking a popping cork

I'd agree when you're not worrying about holding up to salt. A good rod is huge bass fishing.

You are exactly right fish all day with a revo on a ugly stick and then fish all day with a $70 reel on a good rod see which one works better for saltwater or freshwater

With that said, I have both ends of the spectrum in my arsenal- basic $40 Allstar + $200 Chronarch and also my dad's $100 Falcon + $90 Caenan. Give me the Chronarch and allstar any day of the week.
I'll be switching the rods for those setups and retiring the Caenan though.
