I have a shimano backbone Elite 4 piece 2-5kg Rod with a Shimano Sedona HD 2500 reel spooled with 8lb braid and it's a brilliant wee setup, feels much more quality to use than its price range would have you believe, drag is butter smooth and rod is real nice action especially considering it's a 4 piece.. I had the same setup but with a 2 piece rod before but ended up snapping the rod going through some scrub with it in the gun rack on the 4 wheeler so went to the 4 piece as it's much easier to transport.
