Rod recommmendation.

#1 Post by jake »

I have been looking at buying at Daiwa sandstorm 13ft fixed spool (approx €140). Has anyone got one of these and if so could you give me your opinion on it. Or even if anyone can suggest something similar for around the same money. Also i am considering in buying chest waders but haven't a clue of what to go for, something reasonably priced and also not too warm or heavy. Any info or help would be gratefully appreciated. :)
