rod/reel reccomendations
hey everyone. i want to get a new rod mainly for bottom bouncing. i have a pfluengeur g40l combo atm (15-24Kg) but i am looking for a spinning rod and reel. not looking to buy straight away but i was thinking of maybe a t-curve 200 or 400 for incase i ever want to go sambo jigging. with that said i also need to decide on the reel to go with it. i was on absolute fishing charters on tuesday and they had okuma salinas and they didnt seem to bad but did get a bit harder to wind(less smooth) under more pressure. not looking to spend to much though as i also need to buy a new Ra speargun soonish and also a car sometime next year. any help would be appreciated. with this new rod and reel i hope to catch my first dhuie 2. so if anyone need some one to chip in for fuel/bait and are going for dhuies i can still use my g40l combo or my new combo later on and i would love to come =D
cheers
