    Ah - ha....

    Century Shoreline - nice 1 Pete

    Another owner

    Great rod for the rough stuff.

    Used to use mine as a general / all rounder - until I bought my Kompressor from a lad on NESA a few years ago - now I just use it as a heavy ground / kelp rod. Used with a 535 and 30lb line straight through, it\'s just the job.

      Undoubtably, it\'s a \"horses for courses\" decision - however - (I think) what \"flattiebasher\" was asking (please correct me if I\'m wrong), was if you had the option of ONE rod to satisfy your fishing needs, what would it be?

      Yes, for beach fishing it would be xxxxx / for rock fishing it might be xxxxx / for spinning, it may be xxxxxx - but as a general rule, which would you chose ts a \"best fix\" for differing situations?

      I\'d still plump for the Kompressor Sport

          Good selection of choices, however for me it has to be my Century Grand Slam circa 1986, very light, will cast from 1oz to 10oz. I have fished all over the UK with it, from the western isles to chesil beach, using mainly 6oz.I have had Bullhuss to just under 14lbs, thornbacks to 13lbs, cod to 111/2lbs. I have used it regularly to fish river matches, using my version of booms, and finally I have still managed over 200yds in casting comps,even though I\'m knackered.
          Chers,

                    This just shows how personal choice differs, but my all-rounder would be my Greys Orion.

                    Very light, very versatile, and reasonably cheap !
