even with big hands, with the smaller diameter butt, it will give you more room around the reel to get a tighter grip around it.should be a nice all round setup for the beaches wih the 525mag, good luck with it MC

used the AA match at the weekend and must say I was highly impressed it showed up bites from small fish no bother and was easy to cast, it hauled in weed and had power to spare, once again I am impressed
