Hi might be no one has one.If you think it's right for you go for it.

its for paper round money so expect the same in quality and performance - its not something i'd ever consider buying for the ground I fish . if I was 16 again and skint i'd buy anything and use it , and probably enjoy it too .

Only being fishing 4 weeks so don't want to go mad straight away.
Have £150 for a Rod and Reel.
what would you recommend for the money I have.?

My advice would be to try to master the multiplier easy once you get the hang of them.Then for your budget I'd opt for a mk1 century tip tornado sport or a reelsport response paired with either a origional penn 525 mag or a slosh 20 should if you look about get those easy with £150.you will then have yourself a nice allrounder set up in my opinion.

Yep second hand is the way to go, pen 525/slosh20 and a tip tornado or a afaw 6 would be my recommendations, there's lots of sound advice on here and keep your eye on the classifieds.
