I bought this
Lew's Mach Smash 300 Spin 7 ft M Spinning Rod and Reel Combo [academy.com] last week for $79.99 for local fishing, and this week it is $59.99. I read that it was rod and reel combo of the iCast 2019 Show, and it has great reviews everywhere.

Academy is mostly in and around Texas.
What really sucks is I tried to add the $10 off code Academy sent me the last time I ordered a rod from them and it arrived in 27 pieces. The code isn't valid! Nice job not pissing off customers Academy!
My last rod was shipped in a box that was light weight, probably 5x6 inches and 9 feet long. The rod was just sitting in the box, no padding or anything. The box was too flimsy and was bent in half at multiple places.
