I bought this rod some years ago shortly before an enforced break from fishing (marriage, children etc). I have recently started again and wondered if anybody knows what bs line this rod will take? Failing that, does anybody know the contact details for leeda? cos i can't find them anywhere!!

I found this but it doesn't mention line bs.

Leeda Assassin 1300 Match Carp Rod

Specifically designed for commercial match carp fisheries, this 13ft light and slim blank has a surprising amount of power to deal with carp and other large fish. Features fully lined aluminium oxide rings, cork and duplon handle, and screw down reel seat fitting. Weight 190gr.

This is not your rod but a later model, but I think the information will be similar.

The Leeda Assassin 13/15 has proved to be an outstanding rod on all accounts; the tip is soft enough to allow the use of lines down to 1 1/2 lb without cracking off and up to 5 lb for specialist float fishing. The action is stiff and progressive with plenty of "butt" to monster big fish away from snags. It is equally at home with a standard fixed spool reel or trotting with a pin.

Hope this helps you a bit.

thanks clive,
getting info about these things is like the black arts. why do the manufacturers make themselves so difficult to find, when after all we are spending a lot of hard earned money on their products?
Cheers, colin

Hope your return to fishing goes well Colin, I also have started fishing again in the last year or so after the wife/family constraints for many years.
