You might be hard pushed to find LRF rods in Ireland, you may find light spinning rods but there not quite the same thing. I actually use a 7'3" 0.5-5g MajorCraft Solpara (solid tip) myself, its a nice little entry level LRF rod, I got mine from the UK though. If you're just looking to dip your toe into this LRF stuff, it might be worth having a look at the LRF starter kits from http://www.artoffishing.co.uk. They also sell a bunch of lrf rods, from entry level to the high end stuff, so it might not be a bad starting point. That said LRF originates from Japan though and unsurprisingly Plat.co.jp have a much bigger range.

I got a kit set up from art of fishing and they were very easy to deal with, they have some fairly cheap rods on there with everything you could need for lrf.
