Rod Ideas?

[lenthals_barra]

Hey,
I've just got my hands on two reels off ebay and Im not too sure what kind of rods to get, one is a stella 8000 and the other is a stradic 4000. The stella I will use for big popper fishing and a bit of jigging etc. on big fish using 60-80lb braid. The stradic I will use mainly for plastics and slugs and also abit of popper fishing using about 20lb braid. Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Doug.

G'day doug,

you want some serious pieces of kit to bring out the best in both reels.

I've just worked through a similar exercise and I don't reckon you could go past an the grell popper bear s10H for the 8000 stella, and an s10 egrell for the stradic for plastics. Eric has designed his rods with a definite lock up point which makes them brutal matched to the reels

If you prefer a rod that has a more parabolic shape, the Rapala rod's are worth checking out.

cheers

A couple more to consider would be the T-Curve GT Special for the Stella and a StarloStix Tournament Pro Max Spin. I use one of the Max Spins for that purpose and I am sold on it.
