The Fishermans Net

Think this is an item of tackle that is becoming more popular with the advent of a bunch of new travel rods on the scene. Rods from Daiwa, Shakespeare, Fox, Ron Thompson, Shimano and Veals. The quality amongst that lot will vary wildly, obviously.

I have the Daiwa Wilderness 13ft 4 piece and it's a great rod, really pokey and easily capable of coping with clean, mixed or medium ground fishing. The Shakey and Shimano models look good too.

Anybody else got one or have any opinions on them?

Have'nt got a travel beachcaster,but usually have a " 4sure spin " rod in the van.Superb rod.

That the Mike Ladle one Steve? Was thinking of getting one of those for plugging but plumped instead for the Shimano Exage 10/11ft multi-piece. That is a superb rod too.

Yeah,it is the Mike Ladle one.Used it off the rocks in Ireland,spinning for pollack.

And Blanked

The best travel beachcaster money can buy is the Penn PPT Jetstream.........................................it just so happens I have one that I may be prepared to sell

Ashley you crack me up mate
