About Zebco
Watchmaker, barber, and inventor R.D. Hull founded Zebco in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in 1949, in conjunction with the Zero Hour Bomb Company. The latter company, which manufactured electric time bombs designed to fracture oil wells, was looking to expand beyond its initial product and its expiring patent. Zebco's maiden reel was called the Standard, and was soon to be joined by the Model 22 in 1953. The Model 11 and Model 33 followed, helping popularize the notion of landing larger fish with lighter tackle. Dozens of products and patents later, Zebco still pays tribute to the legacy of R.D. Hull with every rod and reel the company produces. The W.C. Bradley Company purchased Zebco in 2001, but the company headquarters remains in Tulsa.

This review is from: Zebco 33 Spincast Combo Fishing Pole (Sports)
Hurricane Ike and an 8' tidal surge wiped out all of our fishing gear...but not our pier! So with most of our money going to repairs and such, this was the bargain of the century to get back out on that pier to catch whatever Ike left in Galveston Bay (or put in it...lol). Buying more now for friends to use when they visit. It may not be the best on the market (and who really cares at this point) but it catches sand trout, big croakers, etc. I like it just fine.

This is, by far, one of the best combo deals you can find. I always bring a spare rod and reel when I go camping/canoeing (because when you're 20 miles from nowhere and your reel breaks, you better have a backup). It might not cast as far or have all the bells and whistles, but it will catch fish!
The reel is so tough, you can drop in your backpack when you're hiking in case you get lost and need food. that's how much trust I have in it.

This is a good little fishing combo. I bought this for my mom so we could go fishing... She really likes it. I dont care much for spincast reels but this is a good one if thats what you like. The rod is very nice too, though probably too long for a little kid, considering its a bit over 6ft long. Can't beat the price either!
