My wife and I have plans to fish in Canada (Northwest Ontario) in late June/early July.<br><br>This will be our first trip, and we will need to outfit ourselves with at least one heavier duty rod and reel apiece. Right now, we have some pretty light equipment, which might be OK for smallmouth and walleye, but if we want to tie into a northern or muskie we would want something bigger.<br><br>Looking for suggestions for rods, reels and lures. We can't really justify spending a lot, because we wouldn't use it that much, but we want something that will do the job. <br><br>Thanks<br><br>
