It's been a while and this happens...

Hi all been a while, with work commitments changing and everything else I haven't been out much. So after a lot of ups and downs I finally managed to get my gear sorted for a session for today, weather changes my starting time and in doing so possibly caused the worst disaster to happen - go and break my rod with the shed door :( , one minute I have a brilliant fox legend 13ft carp/catfish rod and now it's in 4 peices instead of 2 :( both sections snapped straight down the blank and to give an even bigger heart break - they are impossible to find :( eBay has no results and online is a mine field. Does anybody have any recommendations on anything that's 1 similar and 2 within a reasonable price, mind I am not a major carp hunter and now more towards the predators so any help would be great guys.

Fish are not snobbish about the gear you use so a decent medium action 7-8 ft bait casting rod will do a decent job of handling a carp rig and a largish carp. The only real downside is that you can't cast as far but closer in often works nicely.
