I have a 10ft Penn powerstix pro bass spin. Was a bit dubious about buying a 3 piece but its very handy for putting it in a rucksack for rockhopping. Its rated to 3oz which is handy as it can cast a ridiculous distance with a string of feathers and a 2oz lead! its well able to flick and work light plugs and spinners too. I find it a great rod for the price.
