Got mine last September and love them. Handled a foul hooked catfish of 48.12. Not had a big carp yet. Great upto around 120yds.

Great, how are they with solid bags and what weight would you recommend and comfortable distance casting.

I dont use solid bags just short sections of the stocking. I have no problem with 3oz on mine although I'm probably more comfortable with 2.5oz. But that's probably down to near 40yrs match fishing. 3oz feels like a beach coaster to me lol.

Do you use solid bags with them, and if so what distance and leads do you use?
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
