Hey guys,
After a long break and having to buy everything from scratch this year I'm now looking at spod and marker rods. My current carp rods are 3.5lb Daiwa longbows. I love these rods, the tackle tart in me wants matching longbow spod and marker rods. This Is doable but will take a while to get as they are over £200 each, when you add reels and braid it just goes up and up. I'm starting to realise that in my current situation that amount of money is just to much much considering what I've spent over the Las couple of months rebuilding my kit. I have noticed the Daiwa emcast and whisker spod rods are a lot cheaper. Do you guys think that these cheaper Daiwa rods will be ok? I'm no big caster, even on a large water I be more comfortable finding features in short range rather than ove 100 yard. The one thing I don't want is to buy a cheaper spod rod then find out they arnt going to keep up with my longbows. If you don't rate the emcast or whisker spods can you recommend any others for under £100.
Dovii!
