I come to the OB because of its infinite wisdom on everything related to the outdoors.

I have $400 to spend. Go to this websiteand build me some combos, I would like to get three baitcast setups. Kicker is I can get anything on the site for half price.

Go.

I would get all three with the regular speed spool reels. One in each gear ratio.
I know nothing abou there rods but would get whatever the best line you could still afford in a med,med-heavy, and heavy.

3 Tournament Speed Spool® Baitcast Reels in the 3 different gear ratios ($450 total, so thats $225 of your $400):

TS1S RH 9+1 5.4:1 23 150/12 14 lbs. 8.3 oz 149.99
TS1H RH 9+1 6.4:1 28 120/12 14 lbs. 8.3 oz 149.99
TS1SH RH 9+1 7.1:1 31 120/12 14 lbs. 8.3 oz 149.99

Pair the 5.4:1 with the 7.0' Laser® SL Speed Stick Crankbait rod:
SLCC70MFC 7'0" M FAST 8-17 1/4-5/8 9+tip 99.99

Pair the 6.4:1 with the 7.0' MH F Tournament SL Speed Stick® rod:
TS70MHFC 7'0" MH FAST 1 10-20 3/8-1 9+tip 119.99

Pair the 7.1:1 with the 7.2' XH F Tournament SL Speed Stick® rod:
TS72XHXFC 7'2" XH XFAST 1 14-30 1/2-2 9+tip 119.99

Your total ($450 on reels, $340 on rods) comes out to $790. With your half-off, you are just under budget by $5.

Use the first set-up for cranking (obviously), the second is a great spinnerbait/TX rigged combo, and the last set-up is for pitching around heavy cover, throwing heavy baits, or frogs. Spool the first reel with flouro, the second with 30lb Power Pro and the third with 50-65lb Power Pro.

You must be thinking about someone else. I don't even know where the St James canal is.

It's a combo of lazy and not knowing about all that shite. Never really paid attention to what used before.
