Emailed Hots Japan who replied saying the fake lez 54M has been discontinued and the replacement which will hit the market soon is the wei world 55M pe 4. Can't wait

Thanks Cam, not much to go by but if you liked the Fake Lez 54M I'm sure the new gen 55M at 208 gms will be a pleasure to jig with. Hope I'm right.

Sorry probably could have given more info!
its rated as a PE4 rod but its a light PE4 rod if that makes sense I caught some big fish on it but you couldn't pile on pressure with it. My original plan for the rod was to use it for Spanish Macs which it was perfect for but I caught some nice GTs and Amberjack on it at well the biggest Geet was the one that broke it which was in the 25 to 30 kilo region I had my arse handed to twice in a row before that fish to be honest so I should have grabbed a bigger rod instead of stuffing around.

I'll pair it with a 09 sw tp 8000HG that's back from shimano service center Japan. Rather buy a new rod than sell the reel... ;DD should be fun jigging 30-50 mts on pe4 with jigs 100-180 gms

That's exactly how I fished it 180gr jigs fly to the bottom great for strong current or fast drift days.

Got the reel, line and rest of it, all depends on when the Wei world 55M is released by Hots. Will post pics and feedback if I catch anything.
