Plenty of guts down low, but not so much feel on the lighter jigheads. ive now match it with the new caldia 4000, hopefully i dont break that at the next curtain trip.

Another rod well worth a look at is the 803 nrx. a little shorter at 6'8" but for a10-14lb rod has got some go and a really nice fast action. i fish 1/2 and 3/4 through it but 3/4 is getting a bit heavy for the light finesse tip.

I ended up getting the SJR 843 IMX. Can't wait to fish it. I also got a nitro viper which is quite heavy in the butt so should go well as a light(ish) offshore rod. can't wait to fish it too. Now I only hope the wife doesn't get on this site!

Thanks for your reply.

Cheers
