Budget rod's and reel's ?

[KAUTO]

Ok so i'm gonna give this carping game a go.

I don't have much money so i would like some pointers in the right direction regarding rod's and reel's.

I have around £150 to spend and would like to get 2 rod's and 2 reel's if that's possible so please help !!!!!!!!!!

i still havent got any replies on my thread go to your local tackle shop and ask about and it also depends on the lake your fishing.

Ive got brand new Mat Hayes TFG 2.5lb 12' carp rods for sale at £25 each.

It is certainly possible for £150. Getting all the other "bits" can be just as expensive as the rods and reels!

 

For budget reels you can't go wrong with Okuma. Their Interceptor range are great. '40' is a good size.

 

Rods, the choice is almost endless (all the main brands do budget rods), but Budgie has a very good deal there. 2.5lb test curve is the 'norm'. There isn't a need to go higher. If you're beginning then you won't be launching huge leads etc into the distance. I see people with 3lb + on local commercials but there is no need.

Buy 2nd hand you will get much better gear for your £150.
