Cast rod advice
Hey guys just got a quick question for those that like to throw lures.
Heading upto the montes in just over a month on montebello Island Safari’s and have got almost all the rods for the different types of fishing I'm planning on doing but 1. I'm basically looking for a cheapish rod I can use for throwing 60g xrap divers/stickbaits etc at schools of mackerel and possibly smaller gts. I've had a look around and come up with a couple of potential rods but would like your opinions as I may be completely off.
Abu Garcia veritas 7' 8-15kg lw: 18-85g
T curve revo offshore 10-15kg lw: 30-100g
Ive got a 8k biomaster laying around which will hopefully do the job, will this combo work?
Also if anyone has a blue gomoku rod they may want to sell let me know, cheers :)

pe 4 would be a better
pe 4 would be a better option for the monties casting smallish stickbait. Especially on a 8k sized reel. Plenty of big trout etc will smash a small sticky.. I use a pe4 grappler (think it's about 7'6) but anything with a softish tip and plenty of back bone will be good

I've got a PE 3-5 daiwa saltist hyper, great all round rod for casting and even jigging. Would recommend if it's the type of rod your after. I've got an 8000 saragosa on mine.

The book
A couple of weeks ago some bloke was selling a Zen Zagan PE4 at a pretty good price.
They are delicious
