YeahNah222 Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 Hi Guys, Currently in the market for a new surf rod and ideally would like to spend less than $200 on it. I'm looking for 12ft rod in the 8-12kg range. I've narrowed my options down to the Penn allegiance II, Pen Ally, Ugly stick Bluewater, Ugly stick gold and Daiwa crossfire. I was wondering what would be the best option and if anyone has had any experience with these rods. Feel free to recommend any other rods. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Hornet Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) TI’ll back up @wazatherfishermanon this. If you’re looking for a rod primarily for bait fishing, you won’t find better than a Gary Howard and great value for money. There’s not a lot of info about them on the ‘net, but you can give Gary a call and chat to him about which rod would suit you best and buy directly from him. If you choose to, PM me and I’ll give you his number. Edited June 22, 2022 by Green Hornet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
