Ron thompson. Its no broom shrank, great bite detection aswell. Probs capable of a good cast in the right hands I have one for the rough stuff and i wouldnt part with it. Nice colour aswell
The Greys Mk3 Apollo 14ft is the best Greys rod I've ever used, so much power, yet with very good bite detection and casting capabilty, a simply cannot fault mine (except a the moment as I've managed to flatten all the rings on it bar two of em cause I had a little fall... )

Haha every time i think about this i giggle like a girl
Can I get some feedback on a 13' AFAW six & bait I am now fancying saving for one of these instead of the Sonic, read and heard too many horror stories of them snapping.
terry wood reelsport made rod up for me for both f/s and m/p and is spot on as is the rod a response at no extra charge which was 275 pound 2 years ago:
Dont listen to the storys of soniks snapping.. Dogs bollocks
Its very true mate unfortunately...
Theres been a hell of a lot of Sonik SK3's snapping, havnt heard of many SK4's doing this and havnt heard of any of the Sonik Continental's doing the same.
The SKS has plenty more flex as its more made for the beginner/rookie angler for there first decent beachcasting rod. Obviously there new out on the market and need proper testing by the majority of anglers who want one and fish with it on a day to day basis, then the true review on the rod can be justified and faults discussed (if any)...

The 6 and bait is a top notch rod mate, nice stiff action, will pull the plug out of the sea but they sure cast nice Bite detection is superb aswell well worth their price tag.

Unfortunatley i have to second this, the sk3's there have been many problems regarding the last 4" of the tip section. Dont get me wrong lambengland there are some that dont and seem fine it might have been a dodgey batch, it could be anything. But i know of 6 5 sk3's and 1 sk4 that have snapped when casting all 4" from the tip ring.
