OK, so after buying the boat i sold/donated all my landbased gear.
im thinking about doing a trip landbased to chase some elephant fish soon.
so does anyone know of any surf rods going cheap like cheaper the better dont care about quality, even second hand ones will be fine.
i want to take my cousins to chase them landbased, or perhaps even boat based but ive never fished WPB in my boat so im thinking thats out plus im not sure exactly where to go and target them in a boat.

Budget under $50 if possible.

cheers

I feel safer in WPB compared to PPB to be honest (Complete Angler has on of those 'March Madness' sales on this weekend)

Just take the boat. Fish for them the same places you'd target them landbased but make sure the you're in the water.
