zziplex profile and century TT LD

Hi i am just about to by both these rods i live in the south coast of england and my fishing is clean ground fishing with the occasional snag i am also getting a abu 6500 c3 and penn 525 super mag happy days anyway just wanted to know if any 1 has used either of these rods and can tell me how good they will be for my sort of fishing i do do match fishing this is 1 main reason ive chosen these rods have i made the right decision

alrite mate yes you have made a very good decision with the zziplex profile for clean ground and match fishing you cant beat it. the century i dont no about as i dont use them good look with your new rods

thanks alot for that shane looking forward to getting it even more now


anybody got the century that can help me out?

The Profile is a lovely light rod, have only wiggled the Century about in the tackle shop but it certainly feels like a nice rod, from what I have heard in casting circles the Century does not recover quite as quickly as the Zziplex so they may require a slightly different approach when casting to get the best from them for distance work but for match fishing to medium range I doubt you would even notice the difference.

Very tempted by both at the moment to be honest

hi lots of crabs

i have the century TT LD paired with the abu 6500 c3 and use it for my match fishing all along the east coast on clean ground and i have to say its never let me down it great at showing bites from any small fish you may be targeting in a comp yet still has the power to handle any bigger fish you may hook in to it can wack a led of 5ozs plus bait no probs.trouble is when you use it you will find it hard to use any other rod for scratching.

Been using the TTLD for a while now and can fully recommend it, greta rod that handles a wide range of weights and applications for me here in Australia. I can use it for spinning of the beach matched to the Penn 525 mag and 75 gram metal lures for our salmon etc or just as easily put a 150 gram grip lead and decent dait out for a Gummy ( smooth hound ) or Snapper.

The low diameter makes it a pleasure to use and the gearbox design in the butt give confidence that it can launch out the heavier leads when required.

All in all a top product.
