would suggest to knowing a well stock tackle shop well. if you do want to buy, go there first and test out the match. if you get to feel the pair of them you will not be far from wrong.
even if you do shop around for the prices, your tackle shop should be able to match prices most of the time.
hmm…bro any formula?..

How will you know if you are a buying a balanced outfit?
If you buy a “combo” (rod and reel sold together as a package deal) from a reputable local tackle shop, you can be reasonably assured that the outfit is balanced. Combos are a good way to get a better price, compared to purchasing the rod and reel individually. But, if you buy your rod and reel separately you will need to read the specifications yourself to ensure that they are matched well.
How to Read Your Rod and Reel Specs
If you look at the butt end of the rod, just before the handle, you will see some specifications printed on the rod. These printed specifications usually tell you the length of the rod, the rod’s action, and the range of line and lure size they are designed to cast.
You would see for example that the rod is 6 feet long, medium action, and rated for 6-12lb test. Some rods have more or less information.
Look for the specifications on the reel, as well. They will be printed on the box and sometimes on the reel. Just as in the rod for example, you can see the reel holds 200 yards of 6lb test, 140 yards of 8lb test, and 120 yards of 10lb test. This is a great match to the rods shown above.
With an outfit like this, you should be able to handle a wide range of freshwater fishing situations, and a wide variety of fish.

Hi guys, from my point of view, you need to get the “feel” when matching the rod with the reel. Same like love, you need the feel of comfort and warmth. You will know once you get both of the items attach together.. Try to grip the gear and ilustrate yourself in fishing mode. Try palying your rod, like pretend cracking your lure, pumping the fish or hold you rod for certain of amount. After that you sure will find out the pros and cons.
