    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.
    Pretty sure was just the first batch?? I may be wrong tho

      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.
      Nice one thanks mate, I meant to ask Terry about them when in the shop but I forgot, thankfully he showed me a RT axellerator so that's off the list lol too heavy. Thanks for the reply Reg but I think 150 or there about is my budget, I wouldn't hear the last of it off the missus if I spent 200+ on a rod.

            If you're saving up Pete, save that little bit more and get yourself a Century. Excellent rods, not many bad reviews about them. Although someone will have a horror story now
            I've seen them being manufactured as I used to do work for them, pure quality. I have looked at other rods but I always get Century.
            Disclaimer; other brands of rod are available
            People who live in glass houses have to answer the door.

              I got a Greys GRX-S 13 ft about 2 years age and cannot fault it, its the cheapest of the Greys at about £100 if you shop around, and is not a heavy rod.

                Thanks lads, my head is completely wrecked over rods now lol hey Mark I also had a Reelsport VMF sport put in my head that's made on a Century blank apparently. I could just get myself a bamboo type rod would save me all the hassle lol.

                      I there good rods, nice and stiff.

                      A wouldnt say there in the same league as Century though, know-where near that type of quality, more the same league as lower range greys, Sonik's, etc.

                      They come with a really stupid reelseat too, very uncomfortable, and looks silly...

                      Overall though, nice looking piece of kit.
