Best Memorial Day Fishing Rods & Reels Deals for 2024

As we honor our fallen troops this holiday weekend, we also watch out for the best Memorial Day fishing rods and reel deals.

Memorial Day weekend is upon us and so are some annual traditions. While we grill our burgers, drink our American beer, and honor our fallen troops, we also keep an eye out for the best Memorial Day fishing rods and reel deals.

A fishing rod and reel are essential fishing gear. They're right up there with bait and a place to fish. That's why we separated rods and reels but also included rod and reel combos. The latter is an excellent option if you're a beginner angler.

For this article, we reviewed deals for fishing rods and reels from retailers like Bass Pro Shop, Cabela's, Sportsman's Warehouse, and more. We also included top brands like Okuma, Bates, Daiwa, Lew's, Shimano, and others.
