I figure every man needs an 800M Calstar.It is definitely the SoCal go to rod.Avets are great,I have 3.They need to be rinsed well after kayak fishing.I have toured their factory twice and met the owners Harry and Sarkis.I demo'd the SX2spd before it hit the market on a trip to Alijos(They wanted some field testing and a big fish to show off)I got picked up by a bigger model yft but was too far out into the current and only had about 100yds left.needless to say,I got spooled...
I agree on buy american.

I have a fair amount of fishing gear that ranges from moderate to high end.

I can give you this advice:

Don't leave the show without buying a Diawa Sealine X 40HA with the 4.9:1 gears, and a Graftech 7 ft 20-30 rod. Its the Lj Special and my go to rod.
Its super light weight, and has good back bone. Fishes like a 30-40.

The rod sells for 169.99 all year long except at the Fred Hall Show where it could be bought for $100 as seen last year.
-The reel should also cost $100
