If I were you I would have a look at the shakespear salt range of rods
A great line of rods at a very reasonable price
you could get a salt beach mx for the multi and a salt flattie or bass for the fixed spool both
rods together for around your budget

your post was moved by a moderator here because he found it was in the wrong section. You can find it now on: viewtopic.php?f=22&t=32040 - but you have to put up a few more posts to be able to access the 'for sale' section - talk about a catch 22 scenario :wink:

A few months back I bought a penn powerstix pro 13ft as a second rod and a rod for my wife to use, she doesn't like multipliers and I do so the penn fits our purpose, for use with either type of reel. The penn is a great rod I'd have no problems recommending it.

the shakespere salt fs 13ft is a great rod,i had one when i started out beach fishing and it out preformed more expensive rods i had bought,its rated 4-8oz and threw a 4oz no problems,it got passed on to al,of al and jordan fame,and he loved it,i have seen it priced recently at 59 sterling,well worth the buy in my opinion.

what f/s did you use with the salt and penn, might get a new one to go with the rod. Would the slosh or penn mag work well with either rod and what length would be best.
