Where can I get good rods, rigs, reels and other coarse fishing equipment for a cheap price ?

Bob Mutch sells some pretty high quality stuff, and of course it is all hand crafted. He is actually retired so he volunteers his labour, because he has a passion for it. so if you bring him the materials he will forge you a superb rod and reel within a week for free (aside from materials). you should give him a call, i've been using one of his rods for 2 years now it has the most superb feel and strength. I once caught a 5ft muskie while fishing near kapuskasing with it.
