You going to spin with a Multiplier?? That's going to be a long and frustrating business. The C/Grinders that they make nowadays are much better suited to the application.

I cant comment on the more recent rods , as its a facet of fishing I cant do anymore due to Mobility reasons.




What I have heard , and seen the guys use is the Sensation Rugged ,[i know theres a few in the Rugged range I would be the lighter ones of the range ] think its 11,6 they fish with 2 to 3 ounce Lures [CLones for Cob from the surf ] they fish a Small Penn multipliers .


Let us know what you decide . :hnthnt: [/i]

Ph like reef say spining with a multiplier hell of a job unless you using a levelwind type multiplier? look at the new berkely venom 10ft very light weight rod with a hell of alot of pulling power!!

VERY valid points Reefman .


and with Braid , you will score on distance on your cast , and will generally be light to fish with all day long  :happ: [size=78%].[/size]

If your Spinning with a Grinder .My suggestions , it might not be for you .


Adrenalin 10ft xxh , Its a three piece stick , tuff as nails , but will have to replace the eyes after a year or so, pending on how hard you fish its ect . Rated 1 to 3 ounce , a 4000 to 6000 Grinder  20 lbs Fireline , and you will putt a 3 ounce plug to outerspace :yipee: [size=78%] , this rod comes in under the r1000.00 mark , BARGIAN if you ask me [have a geez at some of the thread on UA about  the Rods .[/size]

[size=78%]Next will be the Sensation Dominator 10'6 al very nice rod also rated 1 to 3 ounce . better guides , think last one i saw was about R1200.oo [/size]

[size=78%]Pending on the areas you fish , this might be too light .[/size]
[size=78%]I just saw your Budget , so forget what i said [/size] :creep: :creep: :hehe:

11ft6 Excellor Saltwater - +- R1800

And that setup will be VERY hard to beat! Tops tops tops! Great rod, brilliant reel, but make sure it's the new Sustain FG... http://www.ultimateangling.co.za/index.php?topic=10001.0 (http://www.ultimateangling.co.za/index.php?topic=10001.0)
Put some 30lb Sufix 832 on it and you're A for away.

My 20 cents here ;


A popular spinning set-up utilised here in the southern cape is the Blue Marlin Raptor, matched with a Penn Sargus and 20lb braid.
Throws a decent 80mtrs, ideal for Leervis off the rocks.

Saw an Article in out Local Paper in the week , Where Barry Wareman , fished Simonstown beach for Yellowtail over the Festive season , he fished a Leseth rod , dont know anything about it except It might cost an arm and a leg .
I do know the spot he fished and most others those fish there are just out of reach with a long cast. Yes he got 1 tail out of 4 trips , on a Glow Green bullet spoon.GOOD STUFF   
Anybody knows anything about these rods ?

Post by: REEFMAN on February 05, 2013, 08:19:08 PM
Shimano Lesath - top of the range spinning rod that the pro's use. Fritz has one. Very expensive rod but apparently awesome. Has a high pressure Carbon blank.

Was wondering where this post went .. duh  , another spinning / plugging rod to look at is the Penn Legion range , 10ft , cast weight 2-4 oz and 24T graphite with a carbon wrap .. :hnthnt: ... the Torque range of spinning rods looks impressive as well with some vast ranges of casting weights  , the 12 ft version throws from 4-10 oz ... hmmm interesting indeed .
