#1 Post by antoine83 »

Hi

Im looking for some help. Im looking at buying a new fixed spool beachcaster. I've got 100 to spend. I mainly fish along the east coast. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for your help.

I have to say some of the sonik rods for that sort of money ain't to bad I seen them in Dublin angling centre really nice pieces of kit! Or else keep an eye out for a good second hand rod is it for heavy or light work?

check out the shakespeare salt range they are very popular and come with fuji guides and reel seats.a rod that can take punnishment is required for shore fishing and these fit the bill.

I bought an Ian Golds Fixed Spool recently. 99euro, with 2 spare spools from East Coast Tackle. Can't fault it. Well made and very smoth. Bought it online, was delivered in 3 days.

My mistake, I glanced over thread and thought you were looking for a fixed spool reel..........still good buy though!
