How old is he and what size rod is he using at the minute?? probably best off getting him an 11ft estuary rod and fixed spool reel or a 9ft pier rod there is plenty about like shakespeare just check the likes of the for sale section,e-bay and ask in local tackle shops for advice, i'm sure you will get plenty of suggestions from the guys on here

I just got my 8yr old a Ron thomson 10ft beech300 and a fixed spool for about £45. The reels a bit naff But im well chuffed with the rod. solid but smooth to cast and forgiving.
