Daiwa longbows 12ft 3lb

Seem like a bargain on total fishing

Anyone have any knowledge of these ? Any good?

If you can stretch your budget another 50 quid per rod then I would be looking at kev Clayton custom rods. He does a range called Xc'd for about £250 a rod i think.

I've had two sets of rods off kev and in my personal opinion he's the best rod builder in the country. Cannot recommend his work highly enough, I'll be ordering a set of 13footers shortly I won't go anywhere else now
