3 folds Rod brand and model?

#1 Post by simplywabs »

Hi All,

Another question from me. I am in need of opinions and help. I wated to get a decent rod between 13 to 15 feet and folds in 3. I am on a tight budget so around 100 yoyos or less. I have seen some penn around this range are those ok?

I need it 3 folds so I can pack it small at the boot when we travel and when fishing is only a secondary agenda, to do some sneaky cast at nights. :) :) :)

I also need one for FS not multi.

Thanks again
WABS

Hi Wabs

I have the penn pro powerstix and the 15ft Shakespeare Salt rod, both of these break down into 3 sections and are handy for transporting, Espeicially if the other half is on the look out for whats being packed, trust me these rods have magically being found in the boot on arrival at various weekends away :D :D :D :D you can pick these rods up for in and around the €100 mark, you can if you want take a loan of either one if you want to see what they are like..

Regards

Seamus

Hi Seamus,

Thanks for the info. I'll try to grab one of those type on Thursday. I'll let you know if I failed to get one.
