New rod
Submitted by Terry on Mon, 2016-05-23 16:57
Gday everyone....
Looking at a new rod or 2 for the wife and myself. We will soon be off on our venture around the country and will be trying to get a feed from time to time. Something up to the 3m length. Will be used mainly off the beach to catch say, whiting to Tailor and maybe Salmon. Casting a Mulie or some other sort of bait. 20-25lb line and an egg beater reel.
Any recommendations ? Something mid range as far as $$$ go. I do realise there may be lots to choose from .And then there will be reels too .Will leave them to a bit later maybe.
Thanks in advance
Terry

Versatlie Rod
Totally satisfied with the Shimano Catana 902 Shorespin. Nicely weighted ( with a Stradic 4000) and will do all you ask. I do however only use 4kg Braid. As I recall around $130 with a lower end Shimano reel included.
