Right, I am back fishing after a few years away and my old 4-6 oz 12 Foot leeda rod is too stiff and not suitable for flounder, dabs etc. Any Advice on a 100-150 euro Budget rod that will give me a decent cast but let me enjoy the fight of a small flattie ?

Cathal, Yes Sean is great and has sorted me for everything to date but am not sure what to buy so i was looking for advice on here first.

The young nephew got a 15ft penn powerstix pro of Sean and is well pleased with it
I've used it a couple of times and its a decent casting rod with good bite detection

+1 on the powerstix as a starter rod although I'd go for the 13'. I have one for 3 years now. Its been through the wars but still does the job when I break it out from time to time. Rung for multi and fixed spool.
