PE4/5 casting rod - looking for recommendations
Mark Harris:
Cheers Jon. That really completes the picture on those Black Current rods.
Excellent recommendation Mick. I think the Blue Chaser is very hard to get though. Jon, are they getable?
Jon Li:
Hi Mark ,
Sent you PM on the availability of BLC rods , as for the suitability , I can't say much of this rod as I have not tried it yet . :-[
Jon .
Andy Rowe:
Mark,
I bought one of the BC75MHS after seeing a mutaul friend of Jon and mine belt 70 to 80 gram lures a looong way on it. He is a very skilled caster and was casting easily as far as me and i was using a LR88 and HLTN87 :-[. I believe he has also landed 35kg GT on it.
I have not tried mine yet, too busy with work, but look forward to trying it out. As the 78 version is too hard to get i was thinking of extending the butt section but still not sure about it yet.
Andy
Mark Harris:
Thanks as ever Andy.
I am sort of leaning towards a Saltiga 80TN as it has had so many recommendations and is the ideal length I was looking for. The price appeals also as this is a rod I would not use that often. On the other hand, Carpenter options re always so hard to resist!
Andy Rowe:
Hi Mark,
Good point, for that class of rod it is harder to justify the cost of the carpenter :-[.
Cheers
Andy
