    Looking for advice on two handed beach rods for Baja

    The best two handed overhead casting rod I’ve found is the Beulah opal. Paired with a sage outbound short, or CQS 2 to 3 weights over the rod weight.

    Trigger finger

    My GP set me up with a referral but the two hr drive plus the bridge fare, and on top of that the told me this first visit, was only a consultation and I would need to make another trip based on what the orthopedic decides on as a treatments.
