There good rods. I had a go ov both the fixed spool and multiplier version and there designed for lighter fishing situations. A simple off the ground cast sent the 3oz lead a long way, it is an excellent rod for beaches.
It isnt exactly designed for tournament casting in my opinion, but using a 3oz to 4oz lead with a small multiplier should reap the rewarwds on the casting field.
Happy to help mate!

the one i have casts a 6oz with no problem,and i think with a 30z i wouldnt feel it as i caught a whitting and it was about 7/80zs and i didnt feel it till it was down the side and hardly bent the tip when lifted,you must have the wrong rod in mind..Originally posted by <(Andy2009)> View PostThere good rods.

No, it is exactly the rod in mind, but you can certain cast 6oz with them, but I was just saying what felt perfect for me. Its personal opinion. I mainly use 5oz all the time, except when I u the cm bb (its not cmc).
Remember though, you will lose distance with a heavier lead, mind u when fishing this may not matter.:-)South Shields & District SACComment

U try and cast a decent cod bait with a 3oz lead and 20lb line and compare it to someone who can cast a 6 or 7oz.The 'five plums!' Northumberland sea league champions.Comment

I have done when rock fishing, though the bait made the whole weight heavier.Originally posted by Cod,cod,cod! View PostI don't think so esp in fishing.

Fair do's a can chuck a 5oz lead + bait a heck of alot further than a 3oz lead, but a bet (giving the right person) a 3oz lead could be as cast as far 6oz, it has to be possible, right
