| Rod choice advice? I´m pretty new to sea fishing - well, and absolute beginner to be honest, though I used to do coarse fishing as a teenager. I moved to Lanzarote a while back and have been dabbling - seems criminal not to fish here! Anyway, I don't know much about rods and would like some suggestions please. I have a 9ft rod (don't ask me what type - I started cheap with a kit) which seems for most of what I do a bit short. I keep loosing tackle on the rocks because of it. So far I've been doing float fishing with about 30g and a bit of plug fishing. Ideally I'd like something suitable for both - that will give me the best distance possible - and get my tackle away from the rocks. What should I be looking for? Can one rod do the two things - or should I be looking for two? __________________ Live Angler - Share your fishing photo's and videos with the world! |

| Re: Rod choice advice? An 11/12 ft carp rod with around 2.5lbs tc would do both. |

| Re: Rod choice advice? Thanks for that. I much prefer the one fits all solution if it can be done. I suspect my bank manager would prefer it too.... :) __________________ Live Angler - Share your fishing photo's and videos with the world! |

| Re: Rod choice advice? What about the Mustad Multi tip - nice rod, bought one for flatties & spinning etc and can cast a fair distance, really pleased with it £99-99 but check this one out .... http://www.allansmarine.co.uk/ __________________ SUPPORT THE RNLI - click : www.rnli.org.uk ... every little helps !
