PE 8 Rod

Saikat Barik:
Hello everybody,

My query is about the lightest PE 8 rod available...
Also some nice backbone is appreciable

Regards,
Saiki

Peter Olesen:
Hi Saikat

I think the boys would love to help you. Just give some more information on lure type (poppers or stickbaits?), weights etc. and it would be a lot easier to help you.

Best regards,
Peter

Jon Li:
Hi Saikat ,

Carpenter CV79/40RF weighs nominally 385 gr. , designed for stickbait / medium popper works while Carpenter SP80M weighs 400 gr. , design for popper / stickbait works . Both are known for good backbone and already proven big fish getters .

Jon . 

Mark Harris:
Both those Carpenter rods are superstars for sure.

As Peter says though, it is really dependent on what type of lures you want to work.

Brandon Khoo:
I think it is only fair to point out that there are lighter rods but there is no magic in the formula. The lighter rods generally have less wraps of graphite - so they're not as resilient. It comes down to what is more important to you.
