Hi all, looking to upgrade my cheap fox spod rod as wanting to get a few extra yards, up to 120ish maybe a little further. Would like 12ft ideally and don't mind buying second hand. Anyone got any good recommendations? Happy to spend up to £150ish

I've got a Daiwa powermesh c2 12ft spod rod which I can recommend for value and capabilities. Think I paid under £100 for it new if you can still find them.

Friend of mine has a Torrix spod for sale. I think it's a Cotswold rods build.
Happy to put you in touch if it's of interest.

Free Spirit LRS. Animal of a blank and I think was used to obtain a casting record.
