Thank you very much!👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@zackmorehouse]

This is awesome. Keep up the work and savings! I’m not as good as your deal findings, but I do have a $300 combo that I paid $125 and I only buy gear when I find a sale on something I have 😂anted to try.

[@familybudgetfisherman]

thank you for your kind words. Congratulations on that fantastic deal! It rivals any deal I have ever taken advantage of. I pray that you will catch your next personal best with it. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@happybeing777]

nice pick up! recently got the daiwa blx and a tatula 300 for less than half of retail. No gift cards or anything just spotted some good sales

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Congrats on finding that incredible deal for a fantastic combo. Ultimately that is the best opportunity to encounter. I wish for you to sleuth real good and find more of those deals. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@davidrauschenbach6871]

Fine looking combo! Omnia is expanding their offerings nicely. Only have two 7’6 spinning combo’s ones a Medium and the other a medium light. Hopefully the weather will cool down enough so you can enjoy your combo soon and let us know how you like it!

[@familybudgetfisherman]

I actually got a chance to use it this past Saturday up in Clearlake. I won second place at a crappie tournament. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

let's go!

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Yes indeed! 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@tonykor1]

That’s one awesome combo. Way over my budget but nice.

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Thank you very much! It’s within every budget. It all depends on how long you’re willing to save. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@Pulsemaster123]

Which do you prefer: the Exist or Stella?

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Hello. So far, I prefer the Stella, but I haven't owned the Exist very long. That said, there is very little difference between the two reels based on how I have fished with them. I can give a better review in another 60 days of fishing with the exist. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@Pulsemaster123]

@@familybudgetfisherman Thanks for the reply! I had a hard time deciding on one for the Poison Ultima, and after a bunch of research, the only real difference I found was the weight. I ended up getting the Stella, which was 1.2oz heavier, but at the 3000 size, it hasn’t bothered me at all, and it balances out the rod pretty well. I never tried an Exist on the rod though.

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Congratulations on such an impressive purchase. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

Hey Malik you use expensive rod's bro and your a budget fisherman ? .

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Yes I do. Please watch a video on my channel called “the meaning of The Family Budget Fisherman“. Afterward give me your opinion. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@510herbs]

Man my whole arsenal don't cost half that much. I need to get me one nice setup, but not that nice

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Thank you very much. Period You can get one this nice if you take your time and plan out your strategy to make the purchase. On another note, I still fish with my ugly stiks. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@Bassmaster_Ice318]

How come I never see you with a baitcaster? I can't talk! I don't have not one spinning rod. I'm more accurate with a baitcaster than I am with spinning gear. As far as the Steez, I have the rod and reel combo just in a baitcaster.

[@familybudgetfisherman]

What is amazing is that you and I can still have great discussions on this passion we share, even though you approach it with a baitcaster, and I approach it with a spinning rod. I actually have about 12 baitcast rods in total. I have videos about them on the channel. If you check some of my videos, you will see that I do have a few bait casters. My most expensive is the Megabass Destroyer Evoluzion White Python medium heavy paired with a zillion. And it’s about a $1000 combo. I won the from The Hookup Tackle in one of their giveaways. I also have about eight or nine other rods and reels from 13 Fishing’s blackout series and St. Croix bass series. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@coreygraham796]

It’s a beaut

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Thank you so very much! 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@NativeHulk406]

Are you going to stop buying 13 Fishing?

[@familybudgetfisherman]

Oh no! I still love the Omen series and the Fate series. However since Rapala has taken control of the company, they are doing some strange things with their rod offerings. I’m giving them some time to settle as to what they are going to retail for the long term. They already discontinued the Fuse, which used to be their highest end rod. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

[@NativeHulk406]

@@familybudgetfisherman what would say the Envy 3 competes against??

[@familybudgetfisherman]

The Envy Black 3 competes with the G Loomis IMX & GLX series, the Megabass Destroyer series, and the St Croix Legend X & Elite series. The Envy Black 3 is better than the Daiwa BLX series. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

I can’t believe you are going to charge people for this information…I thought you cared about helping people. I share this information for free with people. There are forums you can follow to find this information such as sales. There are also many places that will price match etc for you. Omnia, American legacy fishing, pro tackle out of Canada, digitaka, japan lure shop, etc

[@familybudgetfisherman]

First of all, I already mentioned in the video that you can get it for free by watching my videos. I spend an average of about $75 per video posted on this channel. Second of all this channel has been going on for five years not the last few months. Third of all this year I’m going to be giving away over $10,000 worth of fishing equipment, including two porta boats. Fourth of all we gave away almost $5000 worth of equipment last year alone. I mentioned that if people want me to curate over 140 videos and give you all of that detail in one specific video, after I have given such a large investment already, they would have to pay for that curation. I don’t see anything wrong with that. Congratulations to people who find forums and other places in order to get the best deals around. If you can find any channel in the Fishing industry who gives more than we do, and this channel is only 3000+ subscriptions, let me know. I think my giving is proof of how much I care.
