"Hardcore" Fishing rods?

#1 Post by Fionnbarrsfish »

Hi there, Earlier today I was just chatting to a lady who specialises in fishing rods and has a few spare. As well as mentioning the usual well known brands (Okuma, Shinamo etc) she also mentioned a brand name called "Hardcore" that is a sturdy long lasting durable shore rod.Now I don't know if I misheard her or anything. Has anyone used "Hardcore" or is it just a figment of my imagination. If so, any recommendations for it.
Cheers,
Fionn :)
