>>1502681Honestly that combo will be fine for starting on some day it will break; maybe on a fish, maybe closed in a car door, probably smacked with a weighted fly traveling ~250fps. Fish it right up until that day, then upgrade. You will also have a better idea of what you want after that. Maybe something fiberglass and slow for smaller trout streams, maybe something faster for throwing streamers to warm water species, maybe a nicer version of the same rod.
>>1502807It's a crimp but like i said you're over thinking it. Use some #20 or so mono and an improved clinch knot, uni knot, just tie a knot you're confident in, and go catch some fish. You can also buy stinger hooks if you want.
