I need a decent but relatively inexpensive bank fishing rod, and also another that a 7 year old can operate and handle. Any suggestions?

there's about 9000 options at the local farm and hunting store but figured I'd ask here first if anyone has experience with a certain type or brand that they liked.

I'm sure they would all be fine, but still.

I have an Image Professional with an open face Shakespeare reel, and an Eagle Claw collapsible with an old and reliable Zebco 33. Kids like the push button--and so do I on the 33 because I like to bike to lakes.

To you smart people on the The Great Outdoors thread.....
I have windows that face north and windows than face west. I am on the 50th floor.
I have been told spiders don't climb up the 50 floors and they get up here by being blown around.
Typically wind/s blow in from the west.
I currently have spiders in 4 of my 6 north facing windows. None in the west windows.
In each/every of the 4 windows, they have spun webs and are hanging out in the top right corner of the windows. Why there?

Prevailing winds. They are angling for surprised insects. May be shaded too. I would think at 50 stories, the West wind is cyclonic often, much better when cut.

Good answer! I think. Thanks!

shakespeare and/or zebco

I bet 90% of us learned how to fish with a Zebco reel
