Hi all,
I'm shopping around for another 7 foot 2 inch (ish) 1 piece 2-4kg estuary / bass rod for flicking lures. I've currently got a Shimano Raider (I) bream finesse, Ian Miller designed rod which I like, but I'm keen to know what people would recommend as a better alternative. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Egrell "Bear" S2.
Starlo Tournament Lite Spin 2-4kg is a good 1 piece seven foot rod for under $200.
If you are willing to open the shoulders then definately go the Egrell S2.
Smith Dancing Bream
T-curve for bream
teamdaiwa saltwater 661 hfs 12-20lb for flicking at anything in a creek.
had a teamdaiwa advantage but took it back after the butt cap fell off & the epoxy around the top of the reel seat came off & the ring that sits on top of the top grip fell off & epoxy lifted off 1 of the guides, they swaped it for the saltwater & no prob's yet.

steez kingbolt, this baby knocks over bass, yellas, bream, flatties, cod, trevors and snapper.
(when Im dead) my biggest FEAR is that my wife will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it.........
My favourite atm would be a EXS701ULBA Finesse Elite matched up with a Daiwa steez 2500,not the cheapest setup I know but oh so good.
Cheers Ian
