Summer gear advice

[markt1225]

Just starting keeping an eye on any stuff coming available for summer spinning to go and have a go at pollack etc. got me wondering what people out there recommend as a good rod/reel combo line used etc. time taken to advise would be appreciated

What kind of budget do you have mate? Best place to start from

For pollack I use a bass rod and 40-50lb braid with a 3oz lead and a jellyworm, but I normally fish for them over the border.

For more general summer spinning I use a greys sea spin, it's 11ft and casts 40g spinners with ease. I use that with a Shimano exage 5000 front drag and 30lb braid.

I use the okuma trio bully's 2lb wrasse in easy and an old IMAX rod atm 50-80 I think it is does the job

Clearly not limitless budget but I'm one of those people want to make sure my gear can never be the excuse so rather would do without than get quality! By cheap you buy twice!??

Only ever had maybe 1lb n half / 2lb pollock gets them in easy enough

I use a maver genesis extreme carp rod when float fishing for wrasse also use it for spinning, Paired up with a few 4000/5000 sized shimano fixed spool reels
