Penn Mariner stand up 5.5 to 6.0 foot rods with Penn Senator 112/113 reels. Can't beat it for the price and durability.

I'll 2nd that one :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

If you're talking gear though, it's hard to beat the Penn Combos for the $$$$$. I like the 113 (4.0) or the 114H (6.0) for the reel. I like "broomstick" roller rods for the grouper. I've gone to using a 7.5' medium action Ugly Stick with a Shimano 2500FB for the snapper or if I get bored with them, I'll use the 7.5' medium action IM8 with the Calcutta 400. Lots of fun wearing out snapper with that one :thumbup: Of course, that's if you can find any snapper :roll:

Buy shimanos, stay away from the new penns unless you like to do maintenance.
