Suggestions for allrounder bream rod ~$200.

[Cortinaboy]

I'm fishing with a 6'6 berkely drop shot and want to upgrade. This rod will be exclusively for land based bream fishing, but I am looking for something of an allrounder. I will probably use HBs 80% of the time and SPs 20%. What do people suggest as a good rod around the $200-250 mark that would represent a worthwhile upgrade from what I currently use? I understand there's good rods at $500+, but I really can't afford that. Of course, I'm also happy to hear if people have a second hand rod in top condition that they are willing to sell that would suit my kind of fishing.

If you cloud stretch your budget just a bit further i think the Nitro Powerbream Finesse 7'' woul be near perfect for what you are looking for, they retail for about $299.00 im sure you could pick one up cheaper of you know the blokes at the tackle shop.. probably for around 269.00 if your lucky!

Thanks for the advice guys - I'll look at all the suggestions. One thing though I should have mentioned is that I'd prefer a 2 piece.

Out of all the above rods mentioned I'd say the Trion (split grip model) and spend the rest on a nice reel... Or a T Curve!

If you are inclined to go the way of Pfluegers then have a look at the Medalist series. They are being offered at various discounts in a lot of places. For 200 bucks (or less) you get Fuji fittings, and Fuji titanium framed SiC guides. That sort of value can't be beat.

TD zero 6'6 great flexibillity for bream lures, with insane strength in the but section incase you hook a 8 kg salmon.
