Michael Adolfsen:
Sorry but did you say spear >:( I thought this site was about popping and jigging.
Graham Scott:
Did I see a Live Fibre GT rod the other day...was it "venom" or something, priced similar to a GT Special, felt a bit less weight but with similar action, ferrule above top grip...or was I dreaming?
Ben Furness:
Ask the site sponsor Gara Pro Shop http://www.gtpopping.com/forum/index.php?board=33.00 about the El Toro 150GT. Seems to be the best value GT mixed use rod on the market. You can get one for only a little bit more than a GT Special and from what I have seen is a much higher spec (not to mention about 200g lighter) rod. My friend judt bought one and he has been casting plugs and stickbaits to 160g for 3-4 hour sessions at a time without excess fatigue.

i would advise getting a rod that is easy to travel with, i go to fiji every year and i use a shimano t curve it is stiff but it has some balls. if your on a tite bugget i would go with shimano t curve or the gt special you won't realy pay over $300 for one but i have both and love them ;D but its up to you the other ones metioned are excillent but i'm a shimano rod man myself.
Mark Harris:
What is it about a T-curve and or GT Special that makes them easy to travel with Kaspar?
