Huge thanks for help with advice.

Just a quick post to thank a couple of lads here for helping me decide what spinning gear suited me.
Got loads of advice ended up with this set up.

Shakespeare sigma 9ft spin
( beautiful rod and it has its own tube )

Mitchell avocet gold ||| 4000 rd
With spare spool
Mono 12 lb half reel and braid 15 lb on the rest.

Seller in Waterford ( shooting and fishing )
Threw in good bass lures / swivels extra line and a guarantee if anything happens he stand over them.
Great price to €90 all in.
Fair play to him

Shopping local also mattered to me.
So thanks again.

Now to head out and enjoy it.

Sorry been out

It's 0 to 40

Thanks for support as well lads tried out rod / reel and lure

Feels amazing

But is it just me. As I feel a little kind if frightened to snap it.
It bends / responds / feels great
Guess I'm just used to fishing for mackerel : pollack etc. and using bigger weight

Love it though
