hey guys,
i was looking through the queensland monthly magazine and noticed that a few of the larger tackle stores were having massive easter sales. i posted a few threads about a month ago asking a few questions about my next combo after gaining some useful knowledge i made my descision. i decided i would take advantage of this opportunity and went down to the local store. i ended up buying a shimano stradic 4000. this was on special for 167 (30% discount) instead of 239. i was really happy with my purchase. knowing i would need a rod i went to buy the shimano snapper raider which was advertised for $99 this looked like a bargain. My friend with whom also wanted a rod and i called all the stores on the coast and even some in brisbane only to find out nobody had any in stock. i find this quite anoying but i guess thats retail. anyway happy with my purchase and i am going to keep calling up a few stores.
Thanks Josh

sounds like a nice setup mate,

Yeh Josh

Keep an eye in the classifieds section here. In fact there are 2 x Gloomis rods going at the moment....if you and ya mate went 1/2...what a bargain. Bit dearer than the $99 though.

Good luck with it and we look forward to seeing the results of the new set-up.
