Default Rod advice needed.

I use a Fladen Power Stick, I bought it from the tackle shop in Treaddur Bay
on Anglesey for £40 with a reel, it does the job well, especially for longer
casting.
Hope this helps,
Paul

Hi all

I am about to go sea fishing soon and need some advice on what sort of
rod to go for. I will be mainly fishing from rocks and beaches in
North Wales, probably float and lure. What would be the best sort of
rod to go for given these requirements?

Cheers

Neil

I used to use my carp rod but this year I sprung for a pair of bass rods
(One for me and one for my partner) although we had no luck this weekend
( aside from an odd crab and a dab) they were a big improvement casting

wise
a carp rod can only cope with a couple of oz at best where the bass rod is
good for about 4oz so we were well out into the back of the surf if as I
suspect you are local to manchester Decathlon have some deals going (rod +
reel) although I got ours from NWAC at hindley green for £30
