    they are a good rod for the price nets have them in stock, it was one of the first rods I got when I returned back to sea fishing few years back.
    also the leeda ultra power again is a canny rod for the price and will do the job

        Good advice from Dale and reg I would say the leeda icon is much more user friendly
        as the ron Thompson are very stiff and take a bit of bending when casting but perfect for cliff tops and heavy ground were distance isn't important
        Both rods are well worth there price tag
        hope this helps pal .

          The money you save on the R/T it will cost you in roids and gym membership to put a bend in it lol.

            Probably the best rough ground rod you can get for such a good price.

                shop around for price m8, I know fishing republic have them on offer a few weeks ago.
                I got both my leeda icon rods from veals the match and the power, for the price you cant go wrong.
                the only problem is the rings are not the best I got stan parkin to fit kangs on the match after it went over on the walkway nacking 3 rings .
