Centrepin advice

Hi, I'm looking to get a decent centrepin - either used or new. I fish small rivers and would like it to be suitable for legering / laying on and trotting although I realise these may ideally be two different beasts. Any thoughts or advice gratefully received. Thanks.

Rapidex or Trudex to start the ball rolling.....

The rapidex, with it's caged construction, is the better option if you have never used a pin before I think. I have both - good reels.

Do you have a budget in mind?

Nope X 2. Saw this. Bit too expensive

I don't get it. When I first got into pins they were cheap and I didn't bother because I thought they were ugly. Still do.

I have been using a match aerial for years. It's great and the line does not bed in on the narrow drum.
