Egg Whisk??

[Davey.adair]

Just bought an 11\' carp rod to do a bit spinning and flattie bashing in the summer, can anyone recommend a decent egg whisk to use with it, or would a small multiplier be better?

Davey my little Abu 6500 ct works a dream with my carp rod,however I also use a Okuma Undertaker 50 fixed spool which is also fine

Shimano baitrunners are very good but at the top of the price range. Anything around the £30-40 mark should be ok. I\'ve always fancied an Abu Eon multiplier but they cost a bomb. Loads of cheaper multiplier baitrunners though. Maybe buy loads of diferrent ones Davey and hoy the shit ones away.

I use both but much prefer a small multiplier, depends on weight I\'m casting, with lures less than 30g I find it hard to get the multplier firing effectively so would use a FS reel - abu cardinal or shimano baitrunner usually

daiwa millionaire (6H) or, best value reel I\'ve ever bought a shakepspeare neptune 300

hoy the brake blocks away straight away, loosen everything and it gans well, 15lb line and a 2oz lead and I can nearly empty its little spool!

Like Alan, I use an Okuma Undertaker and coupled with a Ron Thompson Titanium Bass rod, I can\'t fault it.

 

[alan]

Sure it was your recomendation Tony,excellent reel for the price

 

[poacher36]

any baitrunner reels are good

Cheers for the info lads

Davey, you will find your carp rod has been rung for fixed spool.
If you use a multiplyer the line will be touching the blank while reeling in because the rings are so few and so far apart.

never thought about it or noticed it, but used a carp rod/multiplier for a few years and its not caused any probs. I\'ll have to watch wherre the line runs next time I use it

Okuma UT50 --- pile of crap imo. Used mine twice, line lay was terrible, so much twist it was unreal. Never came out its box since.

Personally don\'t like f/s reels but I got a shimano aspire last year for light spinning and get on ok with that. Much prefer to use small 5500 multi wherever possible

Cheers Terry, a fixed spool it is then.

Don\'t think you can beat the high quality 4000 size Shimano fixed spool reels. I\'ve got a 4000 Stradic with the fighting drag which does the job great.

 

[thewestwind]

MikeR you got damm good taste and I got to agree with you 4000 size Shimano\'s cannot be beat, even their budget models are to be recommended.
