Reddit reviews Ready 2 Fish Panfish Kit

I'd go for a spinning combo personally, but a push button may be more your style i find they always get tangled and make it a pain to cast.


Go to walmart/bass pro/gander mountian. But something in the $30-$50 range. Depending on the age of your kid, those cartoon flavored ones in the pack may work too.


Get hooks, Size 10 arberdeen grab some bobbers Personally I like the balsa slip floats. Like this


Youll need some bobber stops too.


Get some Split shot sinkers


I'm a fan of 4lb zebco fishing line. it's like $2 at walmart for 500 yards. It'll give you line for 2 poles.


Now you'll rig up with your bobber stop, then bead, then bobber, then a couple weights and then a hook. Try to keep the weights about 12-18" above the hook. The bobber stop you can slide up and down your line and set it to whatever depth you want. If your slip bobber isn't pointing straight up that means your weights on the bottom and you need to adjust your slip bobber knot.


Pick up some worms or leaches and go to town. You'll want your bobber to barebly be able to keep up your bait, so you can see the strikes. If you have a big ass bobber a fish will never get it down.


These tube jig kits are usually a great deal too and catch anything. If they don't have hooks, you'll need jig hooks too. Something like this you could throw under a bobber too and try to keep your bait going up and down. Maybe put a worm on it too.


Here's a video where he uses some little jig heads and sutff too

Should be able to get everything under $75. I added it all to a gander mountian cart. They had some specials on rod combos for $24.95. My cart total was $71.92
