Ill do a deal staffo and if i can get permission from god on high and make a modified simulation trace and get a few mortals to try it out (no AG or Spud )and if its averaging over 100 meters i will admit i was wrong, if im right ill accept a on the house hoodie

Id say 60 to 80 yards is the max for this little gem.
I think you'll be pleasantly suprised

i think you would be unpleasantly suprised if you see how far 120 yards really is

I'd say 120 yards is approximately 9.728 meters longer than the 100 metre track we used to race on at school

GAME ON

I hope she does it, im making a hook less 2 hook clip down, with jelly worms to replicate bait, 75 grammes of lead and using low diameter line should give the rod every chance.
Thu May 20, 2010 11:36 am
ill have to have a go at this sod,
Thu May 20, 2010 12:28 pm
Ohh, I've opened a whole can of worms here
Have to say though, my money's on the rod to blitz 100 metres no problem, now who do I place my bet with
Thu May 20, 2010 1:54 pm
My cash is on the rod too!
A group wedgie for Sod if he's wrong!!!

Ive decided the fairest thing is 5 lads to have a cast and take an average. Dennis has asked for a go so Staffo and me are in to any other volunteers. If your name is Andrew, Cracko or Marty you need not apply i like my rod as a two pice and dont fancy a 3 piece.

Shane, Ill keep the traces handy, next time out we can try them with 125, 150 1nd 175

Im off to bed, popular opinion seems to be the rod will win and Ill get a wedgie, well if it comes to that ill live with it but tonight ill be dreaming of my new hoodie in Black with SOD embroidered on it

The little rod is amazing, some hairy moments at first but that was into a strong wind but after we changed the court around she came alive and some decent distances were done, AG with no effort did 116 yards I did about 115, and Lee (scannerman) did 125 odd yards. All this was done on a two hook clipped with a 75 gram lead. So I admit I got it wrong

Anyone looking for a good alround rod for bass, eastury work, spinning, float fishing, piking or even carp fishing this rod must be the best on the market and is very well priced.

Glad you got to see the rods potential sod, did any of you hit it with just a plain lead, no rig?
Oh and before I forget.....
I TOLD YOU SO

I had a few chucks with the 50 g but couldnt get 1 in court id say my best was 120 meters, although a bit out of court

Im glad we took this on gave a bit of craic and banter along the way.Ill leave you to gloat bragging rights are yours THIS TIME

Bragging rights aside, it really is some piece of kit for such a light weight looking rod, and the whole exercise was well worthwhile, you's would have had a bit of fun this afternoon no doubt
Are you walking like John Wayne now after the wedgie
Mon May 24, 2010 11:07 am
Might get one for a bit of Mack bashing.
Mon May 24, 2010 12:58 pm
I'd say the rod is grand for spinning for macks, or even using feathers from a beach with a 2 or 3 oz lead (you'd certainly have fun with 4 or 5 macks on

), but I dont think it would be suitable for hauling a full house up the rocks unless your using a drop net.
