Jason, Call Lee at Arcadia Sports and tell him what you are looking for in the series F rods. Heck they are a good price even without the two for one price and the 300 series reels are great. Comparitivly you can't get a better product anywhere for the price.
I am ordering 4 new rods and Reels from them in the A.M. so I will have my boat outfited with Arcadia products exclusivly. Schoe

They are top flight Rods Jason, every bit as good as the lightening rods I got from Berkley in the 80's and still have
Reels are the ONLY reels I have found that compare favorably to Shimano which I have always used till I found the Acadia's
There is chart on the Acadia web site where you can kinda match the rod an reel to the fishing you want to do and like Schoe said, if you email Lee he will respond as well

well im still stuck here, I really like these rods and for the price you cant beat it, the only thing throwing me off is triing to find a decent reel at 30-40$ a peice that I like to match with these..will prob just order a couple rods and than match a reel after the poles get here and take a look at em,thanks for all the help!!!!
