Possible Monkey attack

cassidyta · 07-09-10, 01:19 AM

Does anyone know anything about these rods.
The $150 off was enough to catch my eye. Don't need it, but if anyone has used one, what were your thoughts.

Possible? Cass, there ain't no such thing as a possible monkey attack. It IS a monkey attack

cassidyta · 07-09-10, 02:09 AM

I know, i should have said I am fighting off a very real monkey attack

jjjbluray · 07-09-10, 10:15 AM

That's a great price!

Bassboss · 07-09-10, 07:35 PM

Eh, I'd say no. Every single report on the casting rods have all said they are very tip heavy and unbalanced. Unless you've got a heavy reel like a garcia round reel or sorron STX, than I say no.

Well, I ordered it. I had read the same casting rod reviews, but am wanting the spinning model. I do like the concept, we will see if it pays off.

I had the chance to handle the PT Superlites at a local shop, and they were unbeliavebly light. They seemed much more balanced to me than the reviews are giving them credit for. Let us know how you like them.
