advice on inexpensive 7-8ft 10-30g spinning rod

Fri Oct 18, 2013 12:19 pm

Hi folks. I'm back again looking for more advice as I broke the tip off my trusty devil in the car door :( my budget is tight as I'm buying a reel also. So far I've picked up the grauvell teknos gold, Abu vendetta, bushwhacker and a surecatch salty powerbraid. Any others worth considering in the sub 100 euro bracket before I buy one of the above tommorrow? thanks again :)

The surecatch salty all the way this rod is a great rod for the money.I have broke so many of these light lure rods but the surecatch salty is by far the best one i have had it will take some abuse.you are more than welcome to try my one before you buy one yourself.

that looks like a brilliant deal. I'm after something rated to 30g at the minute. Very tempting though.........

The bushwacker is great to fish with BUT the top section snaps easy .for me the bushwhacker is a bit like triggers brush in fools and horses.

If Ray,says its a gud1 then id go with it for sure judging by the amount of carbon build up in his sitting room and on the strength of Rays knowledge of rods that don't break have a peek at the blackrock akita series,very nice bit of kit that won't break the bank. 8)
