At one time, the 33 was a great reel. No longer.
I really wasn't expecting much with this rig, but was expecting it to be somewhat reasonable.
The reel is working much better after fiddling with it some more, but I'll just get the kid something else. The 2 pc rod that came with this is pretty stiff.
This pond is close to 600' long and about 7/10 acres. Approx. 8' deep thru the center, lengthwise. Full of GSF. It also has quite a minnow population, but haven't checked out what. I was thinking of tossing in some CC, and maybe a few LMB. It's never been stocked, so what's in there came from wherever. Management don't care if I toss some in.
