Depends on how good you are

This rod is brilliant as it has a good half flexy, stiff tip.

Got one of these teamed with the Diawa MillionaireÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â® 7HT Mag which handles really nicely although the 7HT doesnt like too rough ground.

I'd say you get very good value for your money.

The picture is me practising off the ground casts which shows you how soft the rod is in the wrong hands............

Any experts know what the hell is going on here ???

im no expert, but id say your setting up the cast compleatly wrong, judging by some of your other pics on photobucket

the above picture really bothers me, if that is how you are settin up????

Av got the sandstorm and fit a millionaire 7HT mag multiplier on it......not a bad combination for distance casting!
