About Shakespeare Fishing Tackle
Founded in 1897 by William Shakespeare, Jr., an avid fisherman of 27 years, Shakespeare Fishing Tackle has been a revered name within the fishing business for more than a century. Among William's first inventions was the level-wind reel, which was designed to wind fishing line evenly back on the spool. Now common on most fishing reels, the level-wind reel was a revelation at the time, and helped propel Shakespeare into prominence in the early part of the 20th century. In the ensuing years, Shakespeare introduced such innovations as the Backlash brake, which prevented spools from backlashing; the glass fiber Wonderod; the pushbutton Wondercast spinning reel; the Ugly Stik tubular fishing rod; and the Synergy spincast reels. Shakespeare Fishing Tackle is headquartered in Columbia, South Carolina.

Shakespeare Two-Piece Medium Action Spectrum Spincast Combo (5-Feet 6-Inch, Colors May Vary) Reviews
| 44 of 44 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: Shakespeare Two-Piece Medium Action Spectrum Spincast Combo (5-Feet 6-Inch, Colors May Vary) (Sports) Before I begin to gush about how much I love these Shakespeare combos, let me present a bit of personal history. I was first taken on a fishing trip when I was only three months old. I didn't fish that year, of course, but it was the first of many annual trips to the lakes near Sioux Narrows, Ontario. My dad had five sons, and started us each on a Zebco 202 combo. It was considered the default starter combo of the day.Why am I mentioning that here, in a review for a Shakespeare combo? Well, because my dad spent more time trying to keep those Zebco reels in working order than I can remember. Time and time again he was dealing with tangled line on the spool, problems with the drag, or gears that would just fail. Casting distances weren't great, and the frequent tangles in the spool added to that problem. You're probably thinking, "anyone fishing with young kids will have those problems--it's not the gear, it's the kid who was mucked it up." Well, I thought that too,...

But my son has joined the cub scouts and we've had some camping and fishing trips and needed some rods. After reviewing a bunch of them on Amazon.com I went with this one and ordered three. It was the perfect choice. Easy to cast, the line stays neat... basically all you have to do is put a hook and weight on it and start fishing. My six year old son, nine year old daughter, and my wife and myself had no trouble at all with this rod. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Shakespeare Two-Piece Medium Action Spectrum Spincast Combo (5-Feet 6-Inch, Colors May Vary) (Sports) ive been camping n fishing for over 30 yrs and while i dont claim to be an expert...i know the basics and can spot a phony a mile away...these shakespeare rods are the greatest! i purchased 3 at an unbelievable price for my kids and wasnt expecting too much. boy did these things deliver though.first off, gettin em set up for use was a breeze and may have only taken a bit longer then normal cuz we went out so early and i was still a bit sleepy. the line that came with it, i know wasnt the best, but for my purposes it did a great job. I simply tied on some hooks, a couple of weights and a bobber--easy peasy. gettin the kids to try n put the worms on themselves seemed to be the biggest challenge. they snap together like most poles and for the most part do not budge. that was one of my main concerns, that these lil boys on their first time out would be winding up so hard that part of the pole would go flying. never happened. i do have to say that later in the day...
