I bought used hobbs creek combo that is working great. I also have 5wt redington ct and a new hobbs creek 5wt reel that are working great so far. Bass pro has a whites river reel in store for 30.00 and that reel felt good also. The hobbs creek reel is 40.00 and if you buy it prespooled its 59.99 thats why I went with hobbs over the whites
