Leeda 12ft beachcaster

#1 Post by Gabbey11 »

quick question I have rods to cover me, but my friend may need this as he doesnt have great rods its sitting in my bag but what weight of fish could it take, dont want it breaking if he hits anything bigger than normal. I only use it on rare occasions for pier fishing so dont catch any big fish.
Anyone have any idea?

as long as your not holding the dead weight of a big fish with the rod eg. dragging a ray up a pier.. it should be fine to start off with... once he learns the basics about casting and general shore fishing he can upgrade when he feels the time is right :wink:
