How does one know what goes with what?

Ive spent a ton of money on rods reels string yet nothing works with anything else and the game makes it perfectly confusing. Im I really supposed to go to google and learn what all this is? Cant you make it easier for people that dont know? This is frustrating.

Take a look at the square tips in the shop. The show possibility of tackle combination.

Match rod and telescopic rods goes with spin reels and are used to float fishing. (needs bobber, hook, bait and line).

Spinning rods goes with spin reels and are used to fish with all lures. (can not be used to float fishing)

Casting rods goes with casting reels and are used with all lures. (can not be used to float fishing).

The Uber Sheet has a section where it lists balanced setups. It's in a sticky thread.
You need to know three things to balance the setup- max drag for the reel, pound test for the line and max line weight for the rod. Try to put a rod and reel together that are as close to the same max drag/line weight as possible and put line on that is slightly lower. This way the line will break before the rod or reel if you catch a fish that's too big or if you have the drag set too tight.

The failure state of clever is arsehole.

You failed.

look at the rod and reel details ect: lure weight, line weight on rod and reel match those and you got it.
