I've heard of the HST but not the HSM? :shock: Is it a new rod from the Zziplex stable? :shock:

Martin,

Your almost right, but let me tell you what I was once told by possibly one of the best two casters ever...."dont think because its soft and bends easy that its not powerful" I'm told that the modern glass is so much better than the old "S" or "E" Glass, making it marrie up with the high modulus carbons far better, allowing rods to be made more versatile.
