Thanks for all the info Luke, Brandon and Neil, after reading the specks on different rods and then hearing what experienced anglers use and favour has helped me categorise [to a point] the medium/heavy and heavy duty GT rods. My custom Calstar 700H should be here this week so I can practise casting 60-140grm poppers and stickbaits at YF and LT Tuna and maybe even a Sail, and do a bit of jigging with it to get the feel of the rod, and when the weather warms up I'll check out the local boomies and reefs. 15kg tackle would cover most fishing off Mooloolaba local waters, but using the heavier outfit with bigger poppers is like training, and who knows what might latch on [20-30kg Cobia above some local wrecks at the moment]. The heavy rod will come, what brand is another story

Cam is going to do the same as Nathan, terrorise the local Kingies [big NZ ones] with his new KD, that's what I call full training, that is once his leg comes right from snowboarding
