Sykes 148 Report post Posted March 28 Hi guys, in need of a new outfit. After decent combo for light soft plastics. Budget $100/$150. Doesn't have to be amazing, coming off a fairly old rod so anything will be an improvement. Mostly chasing Redfin/Trout in the hills and Bream, ST's in the metro area. Cheers!

Slowly_evolving 21 Report post Posted March 28 If you’re looking for something mid tier just to get the job done and be reliable, I would highly recommend the Shimano raider rods, either in the rack or bream model in line class 1-3kg and a sienna 1000/2000/2500 reel. This combo will be more than adequate for many years of fishing and well within your budget. https://www.bcf.com.au/p/shimano-raider-bream-spinning-rod/M390802.html?cgid=BCF030505#prefn1=brand&prefv1=Shimano https://www.bcf.com.au/p/shimano-sienna-fe-spinning-reel/M399884.html?cgid=BCF031005 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro 3 Softy, Sykes and mrfish reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
