    Budget fisherman myself and just recently got into baitcasters. You convinced me to go with the max pro as my next combo 👍🏼

    I recently got back into fishing last September. Im 37 years old and I live in Southeast Louisiana so i fished a lot when i was a kid and into my early 20's but i just stopped and never started again until recently. I bought a cheap Wal-Mart spinning combo for 25 bucks, fished with that for a month or two and then decided I wanted a baitcasting combo. I did some research and the Abu-Garcia Max Pro was consistently in the top 3 of best budget baitcasting combo lists so, i went with it and Im glad i did. Its great. I now have 6 different combos but the Abu-Garcia was my first and only combo I have now that was bought and not built by me. I fish at least 2 days a week so i use my gear often and they all have held up just fine.

    They don’t do tap or Apple Pay because they want to drive customers to get the Walmart app and use Walmart pay. Ultimately the goal is get people to sign up for Walmart+. That’s actually a metric stores have to meet for associates. (I’m the team lead over sporting goods and a few other departments for my store so I can answer pretty much any question you might have)
