can anyone recommend a good carp rod of about 2.75Lb test curve for
between
fifty and onehundred and fifty pounds????


A good rod at £50 is the Shimano Hyperloop and you can get those with a
2.75lbTC.

What I tend to do, however, is buy a better quality rod when the makers
launch there new replacement (which they do every few years). Stockists are
then keen to get rid of its the predecessor and you can generally pick them
up for a 'whistle'.

That is probably the soundest advice you will receive.

For the money you state you can a good rod. But use the advice and get a
great one!

Buy Total Carp or another and price them up.

I would go for the fox warrior too.
Top rod at a low price.
