What Outfit for Dam Barra

[the_matrix]

Peter, some of the finest rods in the world are two, three and four piece.
I have not had any problems with it, its a pleasure to use, is durable, light and powerful. It casts like a gem.

My 2 cents worth, at Awoonga, I fish a shimano tcurve tournament barra with a abu revo stx hs (20lb braid) for casting and I troll an ugly stik with a shimano calcutta CT400B (50lb braid). These combo's work pretty well for me.

Which leads me to another question along this thread, I also have a Daiwa TD SOL3000 spooled with 30lb braid and I am looking for a graphite spinning rod (for casting). Yep there is plenty of baitcast rods to choose from but I am having difficulty finding spinning rods to suit big barra that have the same casting appeal.

Yes I do fish happily with baitcasters and prefer them but no matter how hard I try (same rod, same line, same lure), I can't outcast (distance) a spinning rig.

So any recommendations for a graphite spinning rod?

Thanks in advance,

Skeeter,

You could try the Daiwa PR-601XHFS, should fit the bill, have used and find there great.

A quick search on Daiwa Tournament site has them
