Spinning setup advice.
Hi lads,new enough to fishing. Took it up in september and I don't think a week has gone by that I havn't been out fishing the east coast. Would like to try the lure fishing end of it now and am looking for a bit of advice. I'm willing to spend around E200 max for rod & reel,any ideas on whats good in that price range?

Re: Spinning setup advice.
I had the savage gear bushwhacker 8 foot 10-40g and its a smashing rod. Got it from here http://www.harrissportsmail.com/Models. ... elID=17534 and the service is excellent. I also had the shimano exage 4000 but with your budget id stretch to the shimano aernos with rust proof bearings from here http://www.ebay.com/itm/SHIMANO-AERNOS- ... 19cc2c0be7. A super lightweight outfit that will handle any bass with ease. It cost 205 euro total includong postage but you wouldnt be making any mistakes there imho.

Re: Spinning setup advice.
i got a bushwacker last year can not fault the rod great value 4 money. You can pick up a great reel for less then E100.If you can hang on and go to the Hooked Live show in the citywest dublin i'm sure you can get a good deal on both rod and reel.Tight Lines

The bearings are made of stainless and they are "shielded" whatever that means.oli wrote:they r nt,all reels in range up to "aernos" has them...Mus wrote: shimano aernos with rust proof bearings.

Re: Spinning setup advice.
well,stainless bearings had most of reels,even the cheepest ones,one step up to "aernos" is reel called "technium" which has S-ABR(The original high corrosion resistant A-RB ball bearing with a shielding for improved protection and sealed lubrication),"aernos" has no that...(not saying "aernos" is a bad reel,thinking to get it myselfMus wrote:The bearings are made of stainless and they are "shielded" whatever that means.oli wrote:they r nt,all reels in range up to "aernos" has them...Mus wrote: shimano aernos with rust proof bearings.
