Anyone i know who has one thinks they are brilliant, one guy had a 12lb cod fishing the brittle stars in the summer n one! however a little thin on the grip so if you have large hands you may have to consider putting shrink wrap over the top

Regarding the grips they are almost non existant which is fine on a beach rod but very uncomfortable on a boat rod which you are holding all day. |
