PM replied to.. "Daiwa Presso ultra light spin 1-3 kg, 6' & 6' 6'' two piece rods are my choice, $159-00 at Mo-Tackle. I usually grab them when they have a 20% off sale too. They come with free postage as well and come in a tough PVC tube.4liters wrote:I've heard a few people say the Presso is a good rod. Personally I'd just find out what meppstas uses and go with that

Re: Good trout rods?
I fish the Goulburn a bit with a fast rod fair and do alright. With a fast rod you may have to switch to a good quality four lb mono or flourocarbon straight through to get some forgiveness and stretch rather than using braid.
Don't discount the gen blacks....even if they may seem fast, plus you can use them for breaming unlike a softer action trout rod
Edit. Actually just saw that presso's are rated as ultra fast.

Re: Good trout rods?
Any tackle store that sells Daiwa products should have an account with Daiwa, they would be able to order one in for you as well..
