To be honest mate neither ,
You are better off going to a shop with the pound notes and getting a deal ..
shimano do some rod /reel combo,s

pm me a list and i will sort some deals out off the web if you want ,,

WHAT IS YOUR BUDGET

thanks for your reply nick, as for knowing what i want im not entirely sure, basically just an essential carp set up from scratch that could be used for night fishing aswell, with all the essentials that i would need including landing net and unhooking mat, etc as for budget i havnt got a set budget as such just qaulity and value for money as a guide say around £300?

to be honest my local fishing shop is quite expensive and dont have alot of the stuff that is available on the web at bargain prices.

totally agree with nick, I bought my first carp set from argos and ended up replacing it all within months, best thing to do is get your basic rod and reel then just build up your gear with time, Ive said this a few times on here but boyes do some bang on carp gear, I got two real tree rods for £39.99 each and just landed my first 20lb carp with one with ease, also I have a set of okuma interceptors which I paid £29.99 for from amazon and these are great also.

hey mate wen i started carp fishing i bought the 250 pound dealthe luggage is good but the rods r terrible and the reels r to

[andywirral]

thanks for your help and input guys much appriciated

yup i have to agree with the others

have a look around ebay for some gear too.... there is always someone selling 3 rods or 3 reels ect.. you can pick up some bargains if you look around

for example i just got a viper mk3s with hardwired ff1 fish finder 6 spare batteries solar panel plus bags chargers ect a receipt to prove its only 2 months old and was brought for £1100!... for the grand total of £460.01
