i would agree with you tom, have always been impressed with his reviews, seems to tell it like it is. i'm just sceptical of reviews in mags as they seem afraid at times to critisize the item..

getting back to the rod, he seems to think that this is an extremely good rod, especially considering the money for them..also appear a good looking rod

Was in Mckees in Bangor to day and had play with a 13ft AA six&bait Very nice rod for £140. Think it one best looking rods in that price range to. Seems to have all the right tapers to make a lovely fishing rod for mixed ground. Only thing if you were to use it with the reel down the but ( cant see any one using it reel up the rod ) It will need need a reducer. Don't think any of the AA rods come with one now sad to say.. It should be able to put out a big bait a long way in the right hands.. Would be more than happy to have a pair of them. And that's coming from a Zziplex man :!:
