Agility 2 Contintential 15ft surf- thoughts on it on for beach casting?

Surely its good value for money?

I have the 10ft MPV and it can chuck a 60k lure like nothing i’ve ever seen,even with a crap reel.

Reel suggestions welcome to-€100budget.

Not sure about the rod but if your looking for a quality fixed spool for cheap look at the new tronix pro virtuoso range the ST version is about 65 euro and performs like a reel 3 times the price or the XT which is slightly more expensive great reviews on the English match scene ... tronix pro also do a range of 15 footish continental rods you could look at

no fancy cast needed mate, just overhead pump will send your lead out in go distance, hope this help.

Indeed it does, just want a cheap rod that can get the lead out passed the sandbar at with a bump.
