Hi Mate ,

In my personal opinion , the C3 LD has reserve power and it does not collapsed when you hold it for a longer period , let alone its slimmer and lighter , and looking at my body size , i felt easier to blend with it , surprisingly , the distance it gave for me for the 125grm was slightly further than my SS , but again I've just get of hold of the SS for only 2 mths , thus most probably I've got a long way to adapt to it .... :)

Thanks ...

I had a few casts of MAC,s triple C a good while ago and IMO its a good rod for the money, quite user freindly if only a little heavy for my liking but thats just a personal choice.
It has good power in reserve and deff capable of 200yd+..

In the 1st clip BroY your timming looks a little off, the lead didnt apear top leave the rod smoothly and your right arm looked quite bent just before the hit also your hand spacing seems a bit wide,, other than that it looks ok, good left arm extension and your head gets around nice and early too. unlike me most of the time!! :evil: :evil:
just my 2cents...
