To tell you the truth,someone gave me their RDX barbel rod to try out on the baggin wag,which i dont know ,if you know is a very vigorous style of fishing ,casting 5-6 oz loaded baggin wags 50+yds every minute,for five hours,and it stood up to it no problem,only thing was, it was a bit top heavy,if anything,cheers Chef
That sounds like one heck of a work out! Did you catch much?

Thats just the way you fish that method,the most i caught on it was 65 carp-up to 10-12 lb at Clattercote,that was pleasure fishing mind you and i did fish for about 6-7hours,most i,ve weighed in a match there was 197lb,but they dont have that many opens at Clattercote these days,so unless i get the time to go pleasure fishing there ,i dont get to use it much know-but you,re arms do ache a bit afterwards

And I always thought that fishing was supposed to be a relaxing time
