Picking the best catfish rod and reel can be tough. Choosing the best catfish rod really depends on how and where you fish, and the best catfish reel will also depend on the conditions you’re fishing.
One of the best catfish reel made is the Abu Garcia 6500, but the price is very high. So, folks like Slimecat Rods began offering round baitcasting reels at a better price point for folks that are fishing for catfish. In this video I break down the Slimecat catfish rod and reel combo that I have been fishing for catfish with for the past several months. This fishing reel has help up so far, and the Slimecat rod has done a great job or wrangling fishing of various sizes. If you are looking for the best catfishing rod for your style of fishing, this is a video worth watching.

your awesome videos,thankyou brother,Im from arizona,aka paloverde cowboy…thanks again brother
You should contact Jerry cline to see if he can send you a couple TWC rods. Great video buddy
Have you seen the videos on Tik Tok where they do a destruction test on the Slime cat rods they slam a slime cat rod in the tailgate of a pick up five times and do not hurt this Rod at all any Rod that can do that has got my money I acquired a 7 ft 6 medium heavy slime cat rod put an ambassadeur 6500 big game Real on it I like the way it handles is just a little too stiff for my liking I like something that unloads like a bullwhip my next slime cat is either going to be a 10 or 12 foot rod
He’s spot on with the thumb recommendation I ordered one and it would cast two thirds of the time but not the other third they sent me a replacement that so far seems fine they were fast in sending the replacement only took two days to get it
Most of these reels 100% are made in the same Factory Probably just a Rebranded Ming yang
