    Need a Reel Painted

    Can someone match up a new reel with this rod. The wifey is wanting her "own" rod and reel and I can't find a reel to match. I probably will go with this rod but I can't find a decent reel to go with it.

    So I figured painting one would be the easiest.

    Anyone have a guestimate on cost of painting?

    What kind of reel were you wanting to get painted? Did you want the camo pattern or just pink? Reel's are alot of work and usually run between 40-80 bucks.. You can save a little money if you strip them and just send the frame to be painted.

    I bought my wife the pink pfuiger combo from bass pro, the rod is nice, and the reel is excellent...the only think I would change on the reel is the handle...just don't care for the bigger handles. For the record, if this combo wasn't pink...I would fish with it!!!

    SURE, I bet it will show up when we go fishing in a couple of weeks.
