Hi all,

I'm looking to get two rods really. Both in the 9' or less range. One I would like to be able to handle a 30 class fish and the other to catch schoolies. Im jumping the gun so to speak but I'm looking to outfit my future partner in my son. And he will need to go through the paces we all took.

That being said, I'm curious about the CTS cb901 & cb903 which I have zero experience with. Hands down I still prefer a one piece rod, but I'm would like the full range of options and go to's from the collective experience here. The purpose is river fishing for SB. Planned reel is either a Shimano 5k or comproble model sealed reel so he can make the bridge to the salt.

I want him to learn bucktailing, and small plugs to start.

Any help here would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your response.
