My son is really getting into his fishing now, and want's a rod for his birthday or xmas (2 days apart!). He's 6 and a little doot.
He's been using my 9ft spinning rod to lob baits and 2-3oz, 20-30yds into the surf, catching schoolie bass flatties and even little rays.
He's hooked!
I tried him with my Imax fr flattie 12'6 and 3oz lead, it was a little too much for him. Too long.
I think I've found him the perfect rod, a Shakespeare Agility MPV 10ft 2-4 oz.
Any opinions or other options would be appreciated. The budget is about the 60-70 £ mark, as whatever I get will be a 1st rod/ stop gap until he'd bigger and can manage something like a bass or light beach rod.
Cheers
