All-round fishing rod
G'day gents!
I am in the market for a fresh new fishing rod that will help me from fishing off willy town to fishing out the back of someones house! I recently started my apprenticeship in fabrication engineering and have gathered and saved enough money to buy myself a fresh new rod! I have a budget of up to 200$ for a new rod and about 100$ to spend on lures/softies.
Any recommendation would be fantastic!

Re: All-round fishing rod
Geez big ask
Whippy, but not too whippy
Stiff, but not too stiff

If you don't have other rods, get a cheap combo from K-Mart, to start with
