Top water rod with some balls

[Fisho82]

Hi everyone, I'm after a rod that could comfortably cast 2-3 gram top water stick baits but have some serious power to extract big bream from cover/snags/racks, would b running a stradic 2500 on this rod! Thanks for advice!

These are all good options.

I'd also have a look at the Nordic Stage Areal Pros! Insane power for light rods and easily my favourite top water rod!

Howler Custom and build one to suit??

Volkey Big Lake Custom 4-8lb is worth a look, quite stiff through the bottom to middle if you're happy with that, heaps of grunt

Abu Garcia Vanguard 7'3" 3-4kg! I have recently bought this rod and they are light as and have plenty of power down low. Will handle anything upto 8g!

I gotta say for structure the ol dsr820 is my choice, cast well and works them well with power to pull em out

A fantastic rod that's well priced and has major stopping power that I would recommend is the samaki k2 4-8lb. I use these rods to throw everything from top water, cranks, jerkbaits to plastics. This rod has all bases covered. Matched up with a 2500 size reel, you can not go wrong. (I'm not sponsored by these rods, I just like them)

On the K2 mate what do you recommend the one or two piece??

Hey buddy, Howler make a 1-3kg bream finesse thats great for top water and cranks. Very light rod thats equiped with balls. I've heard there are you a few guys using them in Tas for running for top water and cranks next to snags and love them.

I'm currently saving up to get another!!

Cheers,
Voy

Millerod, Bream Buster finnesse. 2-4kg with plenty of grunt down low... Well its what i use and it does it all with ease

The two piece bud, as its easier to store my rods when travelling.
