New spinning rod

I plan on getting a new spinning rod as my current one is pretty useless. It will only cast 28gr lures for some reason even though the stated casting weight is 20 to 80 or something like that. It was cheap and I thought it would do the job but it just doesn't cut the mustard. Its a Ron Thomson Dialex by the way.

I want a better rod and will mostly be spinning in wicklow for bass. Any suggestions? I think I would spend €100 max.

Thanks in advance

I have a grauvell sport carbon spinning rod and its brilliant, i got it in viking tackle in bray and as far as i remember it was €65.Ive even used it casting 2 and 3 oz leads with it when flounder fishing.

10 foot sold out so only 9 or 11, should i wait for a 10 foot or will one of the other do the job?

Mine is the 10ft and it feels just right so id say wait theres some other good spinning rods on that site though, good prices too, i hear the mike ladle surespin rods are very good.

Cheers sod, ill have a look around other sites and give it a go.
