ripistick - I think captiva translates to "cheap shiny chit" - I may be wrong, but my buddy got a combo setup with a penn captiva and it was chincy didn't even last the trip.

a 12foot rod is going to get heavy, for NE waters, I'd suggest a 9ft rod and a Shimano 4500 live line reel.

good rod/reel combo threads have come up many times in the past, use the search function and you should find lots of info.

Good Luck

great thanks guys... Ill check around to see what they have. The 10 footer also makes sense since my dad has a hard enough time casting a 10 footer haha.
