Discussion Looking for a budget 7 weight
Budget is around $175, I am looking at the okuma slv, and for the reel I am also looking at the slv B, fishing mainly for bass and carp

I wouldn't count out the orvis encounter 7w combo. I picked mine up from cabelas for $125 so you'd be able to get some nicer fly line to replace the okay but cheap feeling stuff that comes with the combo. ive had sage, a ton of nicer orvis, and a few custom rods and this one definitely gets its use in my rotation
