Been offered a pair of sportex carp rods 2 1/4 to, are they any good? Was just looking at a spare set for my little.

Also one is labelled as 11'6, whilst the other says 11 1/2 ft, any idea why that is?

It could be they were custom made at different times or if factory made also not brought as a pair but individually at different times.

Sportex are very well regarded blanks.

Which models are they????
