Re: Budget spin rod and reel under $70 Luring soft plastics
Quick update:
Met Shazac yesterday in St Kilda and he went home 5 rods heavier.
2 x used shimano technium surf rod.
1 x unused silstar surf rod
1 x JW combo, unused, got these from my previous FB market place purchase as part of a package.
1 x barely used T-curve Revolution 762 SP spin rod, maracas version

Re: Budget spin rod and reel under $70 Luring soft plastics
thank you very much Fish Cador
I really appreciate the large gift
reel lures and jig heads on their way total $83 just within total budget.
haven't ordered braid yet think 8lb is good?

For a beginner try using the ebay or FB braids. These work just fine and will not break your bank balance.
Check this out.

Visit Lohas. Shop 5, 332-338 Centre Road, Bentleigh. They have cheap braid 500M for $25. Don't buy expensive braid until you get better at it.

Shimano FX 2500 reel, its identical to the sienna except it has one brushing instead of a ball bearing in the sienna.

Good little reel, I have the sienna 2500 and the 1000 version of the FX. I have noticed they are basically the same, like the Shimano quick fire and the Shimano catana

Re: Budget spin rod and reel under $70 Luring soft plastics
I actually dont mind this combo for beginner use.
I gifted it to someone recently and is getting the job done nicely
