All those super budget glass rods from Shimano are much of a muchness with a different tip and binding colours. Alright for $25 or so

Just got an aerplus at ca Ringwood for 28 bucks and a shimano 4000 reel for 23 bucks.. Even if the reel only gets me one season I'll be happy.

Loaded the aerplus in the store seemed to handle a fair bit of weight so grabbed 2 for the snapper season
