  Rods take a bit of abuse with the pellet wag, so I would also go with something fairly cheap and cheerfull with a parabolic action.

  Daiwa Spectron M2 12FT 2 piece or the Daiwa Tourney Pro 12ft 3 piece both awsome rods and will cope with everythign you need em for.
  
  I use both of them and they have never let me down!

  Galps had the tournament 12ft, lovely rod, but didnt think it up to the job of pellet wag, its more of a finesse rod, the rod im after will be used at earlswood, boddingtons etc.

  The Shakespeare Mach 3 12’6” commercial is good for bigger fish and would handle 20g splashers. Lathams were knocking them out at Â£50 new which was a good deal. If you fishing the bagging waggler a avon type rod about 1.5lb t.c. might be better. I am selling a Fox Barbel classic in classifieds which would be spot on for the job.

  It was a toss up between the reactorlite & the speccy M2, just ordered the speccy, hard to get hold of, sold out everywhere, danson angling called daiwa and they had none in stock, said it would be at least a month, luckily fosters of birmingham had one left, Â£169 not a bad price i think, must say though the shaky mach 3 xt is a bargain, fuji alconite guides as well.
