First, its not how much you spend or who its made by, its how well you take care of it! I'am a big time striped bass fisherman and find the shimano corsair CS 400A which is now the corvalus CVL400 and shakespeare ugly stik 7' one piece bait cast model CAL-1101,10-25 lb class with shakespeare 17lb test cajun line,red mono, high abrasion to be a great combo for stripers up to 35lbs so far. It seems the forces are evenly distributed between the reel, reelseat, rod blank and guides for some great exciting fishing at a total cost of of about $150. And it will still fish the lakes with no problem. But that's my prefrence. The best advice to give is take your son to the tackle shop or sports store and put rods and reels together and let him get a feel for what he might be using and let him make the choice with your recomendation . My son and i fish the same outfit by his choice and have fished together since he was 5, he is now 21. By letting him get involved in the purchase of what he would use and how it works, he has grown into a very talented fishermen. Remember, it's an investment in his and your friendship and in his future as a fishermen. Buy it for him know and let him know its an early christmas present 8) and then take him fishing on christmas.  Good luck in your choice and enjoy that special day together. :wink:
