Okay, ended up with a Gary Howard Light Surf 12' and a 625 series Alvey.
Looks and feels the business.

Thanks for your help guys.

Just starting out with surf fishing and wanting to know a few opinions on
some of the Jarvis Bay surf rod and reel combos and their effectiveness.
Are they worth the $80 or so or are they something that's likely to
fail/break not too far down the track?

What do people recommend brand wise for good surf fishing?
