No, not that isn't the one. The one mentioned is a 9-10 and there are some video clips of it being casted, not well, but well enough! I am no good with confusers and don't know how to put it up on here - I thought I did, but obviously not.

I said it is in the TACKLE & RIGGING section of the forum. Not in the reviews section.

One of the great cons of modern fly tackle selling is the stickering up of rods with a specific target species .

This confuses the innocent into buying a very ordinary stick under the delusion that it has been specifically designed for wonder performance quite specifically against ( in this case ) Pike and Seltwater .

Any damned 9/10 will do a 9/10 job !

Go for either a good one or a cheap one and never forget that the folks who specified it and are trying to sell it to you probably do less fishing than you do - they are , however far better at marketing !

But what do I know?

I agree 100% Steve, it just confuses the buyer, especially if their not sure what their after in the 1st place. When I worked in a tackle store I got fed up being asked for species specific rods, I used to say its up to you what you catch on it or not !
