great white Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hi Dave Dan and I bought some rods at Christmas, they are Diawa Kensaki the ones we bought were 30/50 but sem to be a very light action. Will who regulary fishes with us bought one of the lighter ones, and I bought a 6-12 version when in Alderney for breaming/bassing. over the months our confidence has grown with these rods, so much so that they are being used pollacking over wrecks and cod fishing on the summer cod marks. Now we are used to them they are fast becoming favorites Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam F Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Have a look at the 6lb class AWA SHIMA Ugly rods they have in Wessex Angling. A true 6lb class rod and wont break the bank at 39.99 - unlike anything you traditionaly would buy made for UK waters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sole Man Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hi Dave, I have a Fladen Maxumus IM8 triple tip 2-3-4oz but will take 6oz. It comes in 2 lengths 8ft and 10 ft,I have the ten footer. It is light enough to hold all day if you want and has fantastic action with power in reserve in case you hook into something decent,comes with 3 tips and Fuji Sic Guides. Have a look at tacklebargains.co.uk John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
