New Rods!mmmmmmmmmmmm!
my missus, bless her, she ordered me a new set of rods for christmas as a surprise but was so worried she got it wrong that she burst out crying this morning and told me, she couldn't sleep last night bless her.
i'm sure i'll be happy with 4 Free Spirit HI s ive 12 foot'ers!

I got the TFG X series in 3.25lb and 3lb they are stunning rods, and was told that these are built on the same blanks as the Free Spirit rods, so a mate of mine bought his round and we compared them and to be honest there is hardly any diffrence. I do believe that Matt Hayes and Simon Bond were in partnership at one time so it does make a bit of sense.
At the moment I am using a set of Century AK 47's originals,lovely casting tools, I also got a pair of AK 47's biulit on Armalites by Yateley angling, aint tried them yet,picked em up at the Sandown Show/Shop!!
The best set I got is of 3 Kevin Maddocks Challengers,built on Harrison Chimeras in 2.75, absolutely sweet.
I also use Century NG Spod and Marker rods,but I have picked up a Century Big Bertha Class D, it really takes some compressing but can cast a 12oz spod!!!! I think it wopuld make an excellent cat or shark rod.
