Shipping note: The rod and reel ship separately.

The Favorite Fishing Shay Bird Spinning Combo pairs your choice of three rods with a Shay Bird 2000-series spinning reel. Choose a 6'6" medium, 7'1" medium-heavy, or 7'3" medium two-piece model, each with its own action and tackle ratings.

Choosing Your Setup

Choose by your presentation's weight, preferred rod length, and the individual model's action. The medium-heavy model covers the highest lure weight in this lineup, while the 7'3" medium model breaks down for easier transport and storage.

Use line within the selected rod's rating, load the reel evenly without overfilling, and set the drag before fishing. On the two-piece model, seat the sections securely and align the guides before casting. Check line and knots regularly throughout the session.
