Might not be to everyones taste but the shimano tx spod rod at around £55 it will chuck to around 120 (for me) max. Great for the price

Yea my treb is 13ft... I can only do a few spombs at range and my arms and shoulders are fooked! Makes the rods feel easy afterwards though!

Don't get hung up on spod/spomb size mate. Most rods and angler's using the rod have an optimum casting weight for maximum distance. When I used to do a lot of distance work I'd use rubber dog balls in weights from 3.5oz upto 6oz on a field. See which worked the best with my technique. You'd be surprised. My advice would be to weigh your spomb and try it at different weights with the rod you've got first.

My trusty balisters 13' 3.5 can hit 115 yards (60 yards = 15 wraps) so near to 30 with a large Spomb and Boilies

what I think is my old custom Leatherbarrows Harrison Ballista spod rod is on ebay. That thigs a beast and will cast a well over 120yrds using a large spomb. Easy to use too.
Wish I didn't sell it now.
