Any thoughts on how it compares... action, quality.. with an All Star 1208? If you bring it here, I'll be glad to look at it if it is a similar rod. Thanks.

MikeToole 10-20-2008 05:25 PM

A little bit lighter power then the All Star would be my guess.

I have both a All Star and PacBay 1088 and with these the PacBay is lighter in weight and a little less backbone then the All Star.

If you are willing, I live in Charlestown and I'd like to see it if it's still available when you come my way. Your call. If that's possible, I'll PM my tel # and you can call when you're here. Thanks.

rod is much lighter than an allstar 1208- it absolutley smokes 2 oz pencils and works 'em to boot.

Hey Mike... I pm'd my number. Not sure what time you'll be here, but I can meet just about anytime during the day tomorow or Thursday. I'll probably take it, but want to check it out and see what you have to sy about it. I fish from Pt judith to Mesquamicut. So Westerly easy. See you when you get here. Kevin
