Hi Saltigagt,
Where do you live? …if it’s in Klang Valley, my favourite tackle shop would naturally be Kepong Tackle.
There are a wide range of surf rods there, from the cheaper to slightly more expensive ones!
Check it out then…but most are for spinning reels set-up.

got myself a 13’ rod already. problem is, dun think the tackle shops in kota kinabalu keeps surfcasting accessories. i manage to get the sinkers, however, dun have the breakaway clip, so cant cast too hard w/o the bait flying off. any recommendations where i can get it?

Make some! Get either a thick paper clip or some stainless steel wire. You should be able to get the small rubber tubing from the tackle shop. Cut the paper clip so you have a U shape with one side about 20mm long and the other around 5 or 6mm. Cut several so you have spares. Thread the tubing onto the line, push the long side of the wire into the tubing and you have your clip.
