Megabass Rod?
Hey guys,
I am currently looking for a new rod for my airity 2506. I use this reel to target bream on hardbodies. I will mainly be using it for landbased work with the occasional boat session. Ive been checking out the website and am not sure what rod to go with? If anyone can help me or if anyone uses these rods for bream? I live in south australia and is there anywhere i can find them in Australia? |

I dont think many tackle stores will carry Megabass rods in stock, but most good shops should be able to order them for you. I'm hoping to have a look at the MB rods at the tackle show, as I've only every played with 1 before and I cannot remember the details of it. Nice rod though and look swell!

better components and appeareance than GLX, of course a megabass rod is around the same price as a GLX+luvias. lol
usually 1000 bucks |

This might be suitable.
F2-611XS Super Full House (2-piece, Medium Fast, 1/32-1/4 oz., 3-10lbs.) Super full house is our first 2-piece Destroyer spinning model. When you run across a nice looking pond or river by chance, you will be glad that you have Super full house stowed in you trunk. Designed for long casting from the shore, yet, you will enjoy many other applications as well. Its under the "spinning rods" tab on the megabass website. |

It was less than $500 AU including shipping. Go for the 2-piece rod, it will save you on shipping. Very nice rod.... awesome blank and great components (10 Ti-Sic guides) |

Yep, I fell in love with it too! Hence why it made it on our list of rods to stock in the shop - I'll post when they arrive!
