zebco 33
I actually did not upgrade until college.
I caught many 5 and 6 lb bass and 10+ lb cats with those old 33's

Zebco. Can't remember the model though. It was plastic and brown/lightbrown. Put a hurting on the sac-au-lait population with that thing.

Mine was a Pflueger... They were on sale a few months ago
Seriously though, I've never been into it really until this year and now have a shimano and some other asian sounding one that starts with a D (samurai something?)
Still a noob, but I eagerly read everything you all post about bass fishing.![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

Mine was a snoopy pole until a 2-3 pound redfish put an end to it.
First actual setup was a Zebco.

I could put a white red dot beetle spin under any limb, log, snag, etc. Dont think i could snap it off like old, but would love trying.
Everyone goes nuts over coastal stuff, as do i, but wading a pretty stream with a 33 is great. Simplistic and forgotten. Hell i might load up and go soon.

I didn't even learn to overhand cast until I got baitcasters. I sidearm casted and could drop, skip, or sling a bait anywhere I wanted it to go. had it on a 5'6" rod with the old style rubber trigger grip like this:

I still rarely overhand cast. I go sidearm 90% of my throws.
