At least yall have stuff over at mine you might be lucky to find 4 broken rods or like 18 spools of 50 to 105 fluro carbon test and possibly on a amazing day 5 different soft baits legit I got to drive a extra hour to have a good selection
That is the most tidy rod selection area in a wallmart I have ever seen. I have lived in 6 states and have visited dozens of different wallmarts. I'm not even kidding
I have always had at least one ugly stik, no matter what other rods I am taking, I make sure I have my ugly stik as well. its just a classic at this point.
I’m jealous of your Walmart lol. The black max spinning rod has caught dozens of wacky rig bass for me. My wife uses the Hank Parker Lews spinning combo. The reel isn’t the smoothest but it has held up really good for $30. I want to buy one of the new xfinity spinning combos next. I have 10 baitcasters and only 2 spinning rods. I also buy several strike king jigs from the box. I live in Georgia and our fishing aisle is exactly like yours but with less combos in stock.
Yea I’m pretty lucky to be near this Walmart, they really keep a good selection in stock. They normally have more reels and rods in stock, but they were wiped this time lol.
Luckily Bass Pro Shops and a local hardware store with an entire basement of fishing stuff is nearby because Walmart doesn't really have what I use except for fishing line and nets. Try buying decent catfishing or musky stuff there. I guess bass fishing and panfishing are decent but that is bait.
I love that Ozark trail spinning combo but I don't like that cork foom tip grip because it starts to crumble apart loving that Abu Garcia spinning combo hands down Abu Garcia spinning combo 🎣👍🏼 for me is the winner
I never mess with the scents either. Fish my plastics right out of the bag. The only form of liquid I use at all in fishing is the KVD Line and Lure spray. Best stuff ever for line management and adding cast distance!
@@bluecollaroutdoors5556 I can attest to the positive benefits of it. When I treat my line with it I can physically feel the wiry feeling become less. It gains a slick feeling, but not like oil. It’s more like silicone. They say it also reduces static cling so people use it on their depth finder screens to keep them clean, and by the same token I will not only treat my line with it but also rub it on my rod line guides. Less static will keep dirt down and let the line flow more freely through them. That’s my theory anyway. All I can prove is that I gained 20 feet of cast distance simply by adding this to my line. It helps take coil out of spinning reel lines also. When I apply it, I don’t just spray it, I drench the line on my reel spool with it, and then I either spray each guide or wet a cloth with it and rub them. Apply it right after changing line. They say you can also apply during fishing while the line is wet but I prefer to put it on when dry.
On most of those ozark trail combo's the reels are the problem the rod is pretty good tho. Idk about the new versions I just know about the older models an that hank Parker lews combo is decent for panfish an crappie an smaller bass. But I hauled in a 25 pound flat head catfish on 8 pound test I had to work the drag like crazy tho took me about 20 minutes.
Nice Walmart. Our Walmart's are lacking when it comes to stuff. Plenty of price tags but nothing in the spots. Camping section is worse than the fishing. It seems like they started remodeling a few years ago and forgot sports area. Must me a Memphis/N. Miss thing. The best store are where fishing is more popular. Thank you for the video.
I did a $100 build from Walmart Ugly stik GX2 6’6 medium 2 piece(because I like 2 piece) Reel- pflueger presidential Happy with the secondary pole build Usually use Cajun red 10-12# Pan fish with and also able to bring 20 pound salmon in if I wanted
@@EGM1775 thanks for the reply. I'm considering the same combo but I'm thinking about going with the 4 piece GX2. Have you had a chance to compare it to the 2 piece GX2?
@@exshenanigan2333 yeah that’s what I have now. All my rods are 2 piece. So far my line up is 6’6 medium GX2 6’0 medium GX2 6’6 medium Ugly stik Elite I really like the Elite rod its nice the GX2’s and the Elite I like equally
Some of those rods with lesser backbone could make a decent crank bait rod for someone on a tight budget. I like stout backbone for hook sets with jigs and worm rigs but I prefer a more limber rod for moving baits with treble hooks.
Wow where is your Wal-Mart at? We have maybe 10 to 15 Wal-Mart's within 50 mile and none have the fishing selection yours does! Ours have maybe 1/8 of the rod and reels selection and less of the bait selection. Our Hunting department is almost nonexistent.
@@bluecollaroutdoors5556 fishing and hunting are here too but our Walmarts suck when it comes to fishing and hunting. We live in the between the Mississippi and Ohio river and multiple huge lakes and smaller lakes ponds etc in Illinois Kentucky and Missouri and it's like we live in the middle of the Sierra desert when it comes to Walmart carrying sporting goods. Anyway good luck hunting and fishing.
Whopper ploppers at Walmart wtf 😳 my walmart sucks it’s like mostly hunting stuff that walmart is dope has everything you could ever need. Thank god we just got a bass pro in Morgantown .
That's a nice looking store. My Walmart always looks like someone tossed a hand grenade down the tackle aisle.
So dose my fishing section
same here and all the good stuff is locked behind Plexi glass
Lol yup

My son has done very well with the hot wheels rod no problems reeling in a 4lb bass he always has that as a backup rod

The lunker hunt one is a good rod combo got a few carp on those 🔥

Just picked up a Ugly Stik 7ft medium heavy intercoastal and a 3000 reel. No luck on any Stripers today.
I like my Walmart in Tarboro NC it’s clean and have way more stuff when it comes to fishing

Your Walmart has so many different good things.... And it's neat an not thrower around... I'm jelly haha
I've been using the Shakespeare tiger for frog fishing lately it actually don't do bad, only temporary until I get my Shimano shipped😭
Buy a lightning rod by Berkeley. They are great. I highly reccomend them
Them rooster tails for trout can slay some smallmouth in the right rivers

I did a $100 build from Walmart
Ugly stik GX2 6’6 medium 2 piece(because I like 2 piece)
Reel- pflueger presidential
Happy with the secondary pole build
Usually use Cajun red 10-12#
Pan fish with and also able to bring 20 pound salmon in if I wanted
what size pflueger pres. did you get?
@@exshenanigan2333 I went with size 35 at the time I only paid $48 for it after taxes it may of been a dollar or 2 over 100.

@@EGM1775 Glad to hear you're happy with them, I'll look into 2 and 3 pieces and make a decision. Thanks for all your input and suggestions!
It's sad that prices have nearly doubled on fishing stuff and almost everything in the last two years
Which roa and reel in salt water and sweet water combo use....?
Walmarts in my area always have daiwa revros combos for 50 the reel alnone costs more than that at bass pro lmao. I buy them just for the reel

Yea man you are right those could be used to run crankbaits.
Happy to not have to choose between 20 and 44 dollar combos.
We have so many tackle shops I try not to go in Walmart. Hay if you can find a deal there go for it. ❤️🌲🌲🌲❤️

It’s a small town in MO, it is near a big lake where fishing is everything for the community.

@12:39 anybody has those ozark trail grit stiks 8ft are they any good
Walmart is the only place in this town to shop for fishing gear
Everything for beginners to pro
I'm in bonne terre MO

Yea man, those whoppers are great for working on those smallmouth on the river.
You don't have to spend a lot of money to get good fishing gear. I spent 50.00 on a pole and real and it works as good as your hi $ gear .
