    Spin rod for Barra/Snapper

    Hi all, just after some ideas for a spin rod for barra/snapper etc. for soft plastics for example and maybe hard bodies and bait. i would most likely use it in Monduran for barra and sunshine coast reefs for snapper etc. I will also need a spin reel for this and would like suggestions for this as well, i will have a budget of about $450-550,i think this should give me a quality outfit to pull these fish out of the timber,thanks for any input.

    The Egrell S10 is within you budget and was designed in Australia for chasing Barra and Snapper on soft plastics. It's a pretty awesome rod.

    Stradic 5000 and a t curve would be good for that budget have the stradic 5000 on a sol rod, goes great for snapper but living in N.S.W i don't catch many barra

    Hi mate,
    I would definately recommend a Diawa Sol combo. If you were to shop around you could probably get it for the top end of your price range or just a tad higher. I have the 2-4kg rod weight and length is 7 ft. matched with the sol spin reel in 2000 size. Its the best rod i have and would be great for that sort of fishing. you might want to up the rod and reel sizes though. However i fishing very light so its perfect for me. Just my thoughts

    Don't forget the Nitro Innovator range with the Viper or Distance Spin Mag Butt well suited for your purpose. Match it with a Stradic and it will do the job fine
