hi all i know some of the guys on here have experience of the above rod.how would you rate it as an out and out rough ground rod or semi rough ground or a long distance rod??i would appreciate any info from anyone who has one or used one??many thanks john

I have had a few wangs of dbrocks extractor yesterday and was very impressed, its not an out and out rough grond rod more a mixed ground / long distace rod. For the money they are unbeatable

[dbrock]

it will handle anything and more that we have to use it for in ireland , ive used 7 ounce leads and whacked em and it still lives, been honest its to good of a rod for the price, makes me wonder why so many rods cost twice as much as it
amazing piece of kit, all i can say is have a go of one and be shocked,
im sure staffo will be on about it to he was shocked when he used it, (so much i didnt get near my rod all day)

Dbrock what sort of money are we talking about for one of these rods.

[bigsod]

Think there around the €250 mark

[bigbadtom]

Thanks bigsod a bit pricey for me im afraid.

John, buy 2 of them!
I used DB's yesterday for 1 cast and ended up using it all day not even taking my Primo Synchro out of the bag! Slim Light Powerful and a great tip, ideal for long range work and showed up small Flounder bites at 100 yards no bother too. For the money it's an incredible rod, and I've paid twice as much in the past for supposed top rods!

This rod takes some beating and I'm sure if more lads had the chance to use them you'd see every beach full of them.

Top rod all round gets my thumbs up!

thanks for all the info lads its much appreciated.anyone know where i can get one??john

[Tony Fella]

I know Southside Angling Centre in Dublin has one in stock

A very nice rod indeed, during tests andrew did over 260 with it so its well capable

[beachcaster]

many thanks for all the info lads ,i will have to buy blind as no one stocks or has an extractor i could get a feel of up here.but from what you all say its sounds like a rod i would be interested in.john
