i have been looking for a new rod 6-10 kg for floating pillies with my 7000 size abu and calcutta reels.
my old 10kg ugly that is about 26 years old, metal reel seat, soft parabolic curve, 5ft6, is still going strong, but would like something with a graphite reel seat, bit lighter in the tip, and a bit faster taper. well after looking around for a couple of weeks, i have found it. a 10-15 kg ugly stick and it is only $70.00.
I have a few uglies and while i treat my full carbon rods with a lot more care, they just don`t seem to last as long.
