the gtb 3 is a beast of a rod a real hernia pole ,dave vickery has cast a 175 lead 230 meters with the gb3 at an anglia sportscast event and he is one of the best back casters in gb.far to heavy for normal fishing and casting,far better of with a gb3 lite or a century sre another lovely three piece rod.costly aswell at around £360 cheers john
