Which spinning rod???

[greggthe1]

I'm looking for a spinning rod for more fun with the mackies and pollock. Any ideas what to go for and a suitable reel to go with it???

Hi Gregg, I have a couple of Carp rods that I use mate and they make for great sport. If I want to fish very light I just use a small telescopic rod and you have to play the fish for a while which is cracking.

The Carp rods I also double up for float fishing for Pollack, or Bass fishing. I looked for a while before I found the ones I like but if you go to any tackle shop they will let you have a feel and a bit of a swish about with it before you buy.

Jim.

Ive had lots of diffrent spinning rods and shimano beats them all either the stc spinning travel rod or my favorite is the shimano nexave 20-60g but they also do one upto 100g

Same as Jim mate,Carp rods,I actually got mine in a NESA auction off Mark (Mod) plus another one my son uses and it has served me well,I've got various fixed spool reels but i prefer the Okuma undertaker 50,reasonble price and excellent quality.
