That's good to hear, it might of been a bad batch.

Corey Howell:

11 doggie jigging sessions and counting. PE8 and maxed drag on saltiga 6500. several occasions towing fish off the reef with the boat with spool locked. temtping fate to say this, but have already got my $350 worth  :o

have caught a bunch of GTs with it too. popping a 5'6" jigstick bloody good exercise too LOL

anyone else out there putting a 450 Venom thru its paces ???

well said Brandon, We were using these rods on a charter i was deckie on out of coffin bay for kings and samsons, and for the average punter who does not really know what they are doing i thought these rods stood up well to charter abuse. yes we had a couple snap but was due to poor use by angler. was running 80 lb braid through the.
