I am a kid who is looking for the cheapest and best way to catch muskie, notherns, and tigers in the 1-20lb range. I caught a nice chain pickeral and was hooked on the pike family! What is the most effective (and least expenisive) rod, reel, line, and lure combo for catching toothy critters during the summer in southeastern, pa.
A very nice rod that is not expensive is the Shakespeare Ugly Stik Muskie rod. Only thing is it does not come in a combo, but the Shakespeare Alpha series reels are great with this rod and also are not expensive. Line that is good for pike and muskies is Berkley Big Game line. Lures that are good and not expensive are Bass Pro Shops lures and Rapalas. I know how you feel, I was just like you when I started muskie fishing. This is the equipment that I started fishing for muskies with about 8 years ago and it has been very good for me, I liked them so much that I still use these today.
since you're just starting out, you don't need some pool cue-like rod and a reel that will hold 200 yards of 100# line... the BPS Megacast baitcasting combo and some Power Pro braid - with a steel leader - will land lots of toothy fish for you just fine. I've caught countless pickerel on mine and big bass too. Later on, if you get really good and wanna start targeting those big record-book size boys, you can upgrade.
