It throws the Giants and the Divers (4oz to 61/2 oz) just fine and I can even lob the Trollers (71/2oz to 8 1/2oz) with it. I have a VS 250 on it. I love that rod!! The other outfit is a 11 1/2'
lami that will throw a small car, I can lay into the Trollers with that one, have an old Crack 300 on that one. When I came into surfcasting in the early 80's everybody used big rods.  |
11 1/2 foot with a Crack 300, boy does that bring back memories.
This thread may force me to get one of your giants
