Why dont you look at the Kingfisher Poseidon Ultra Light, I use one and have paired it with a Daiwa 4500 Capricorn and I am very hapy with the setup.
It is raited to 3oz but still has alot of backbone. I throw spoons,plugs and even use it for the Bronze bream, it has even acounted for a nice Brusher.
Have a look at the latest ESA mag. Dean has placed an artical about it in the mag.
I have got 20bl Mustad braid on the reel and for what I have used it I am still to find something wrong.
