Can you guys recommend which of the Seeker Rods they have on sale would be a good starter rod for fishing live bait in La Jolla with the goal of targeting YT and Halibut?

For YT, you may want to fish up to 40# line. Halibut really depends on the bite, and at times, you may want to fish light line. So, more times than not, one rod/set-up, just won't cover all the fishing situations you may encounter. However, for starters, if your starting out, I'd go with a 30 and 40 pound set-up, one of each. If you have a finicky bite, change out the top-shot on the 30# rig, dropping down to 20, then 15 in necessary... If your looking for one 40# rig, for now, I'd go with a pinhead D-8, it's rated 25-50, but they fish 40# really well. But, you do not need an 8' rod for live bait. Keep in mind, that I have not been to Sport Chalet, so I don't know what models are on sale |

I just bought one online today... 50% off, plus an additional 20% off for the Cyber Monday code, plus I added a few smaller items to bring the order over $100 and got an additional 15% off the total order... Ended up paying $63.56 for the 7' 20# rod PLUS a $25 cash card thrown in for free.. Killer deal!

Seeker Stealth 7" Live Bait Casting Rod. With some luck I'll pickup an Avet SX in the next few months, but in the meantime I plan on using an Abu Garcia 6500 ambassadeur with this rod to get a feel for it. I've recently become a convert to braid after an unused reel was passed down to me. Any recommendation on braid by brand name and line rating? |

Just curious if any of you received the rods that you ordered? I received all of the items I ordered except the rod. I am wondering if they oversold these on Cyber Monday.

I went into the store today and they said it should arrive by email. If I don't see it later today I'll give their 1-800 number a call and find out what the story is.

I emailed them through the sport chalet website, and my gift card came about an hour later by email. Whether this is coincidence I dont know, but I got my giftcard. Expires 12/7.
went today and spent my gift card no problem, got 4 tady's, a squid jig and some hooks for $30 Last edited by yemff; 12-02-2014 at 07:26 PM. |

What was the cyber Monday code and did you have to do anything special for the gift card?
