      I think they are £12 each, You do get what you pay for in life but I have one and for all it's a bit flimsy, soft for a pike rod It's nicely built and rung. I've also had a 25 pound pike on it and it handled it perfectly well.

            I've got greys pike rods , the greys boat pike rod is a lovely rod with a soft through action which is a pleasure to play fish on, the prodigy dead bait 3lb tc is a much stiffer faster action rod that is obviously more suited to bank fishing where casting big baits long distances is required, much less forgiving and not so much fun unless you are into a big girl. Not sure if they still make these models , but no doubt whatever they make now will be just as good.
            They will no doubt have carp rods which will be suitabe for piking too
