Hi there,
as far as i know thigh lines .com and red from the forum use the nexave im sure if you get in contact with them they will fill you in.Failing that check out halfway angling centre in halfway cork im sure dan will have something to fit your budget,he has a website which you can access on the link station of this website.

Theres a Daiwa Supercast Fixed spool rod still for sale, give Seanie35 a shout for details he's in West Waterford.

Great rod and it's within your budget too.

hey rick. i got the nexave rod a while back from spottydog and happy enough with it so far. its got good bite detection and i find it easy enough to cast with.
i paid £49 for it but P&P was another £20. i ended up getting another one for a friend and a mustad 4 season suit with it also and the P&P was still £20 so if you decide to buy from them it might be worth your while seeing if any friends need anything and split the postage between ye. last time i looked it had gone back upto £99 tho. ive used a few other rods around the 100-150euro range and i probably prefer my nexave to them. i had a few casts off the penn surfblaster a few weeks ago and i liked that too. dan in the halfway has them, i think their about 130euro tho

heres a good write up on the shimano

if you decide you might go for one and want to have a few casts off it first send me a pm and i can meet you at a beach or field somewhere. just cos i like it doesnt mean you will.
