Got to agree with most things that have been said so far.
I got a Shakespeare K2 LDC Extreme 18ft beachcaster and a Shakespeare K2 Powerplay long cast fixed spool reel earlier this year in the thinking that it would give me an edge being able to blast one out to the horizon.
It\'s a fantastic piece of kit, light as a feather, superb finish and effortlessly blasts a bait out further than I have ever done before. However, I don\'t think I\'ve caught any more fish with it than I would usually catch with my 14ft rod, slosh reel and 30lb line.
It may have it\'s uses in some parts of the country, but putting a bait where the fish are is much more important, and that means knowledge and experience, something an extra 4ft of rod doesn\'t buy you.
