I am looking at purchasing some new rods very soon. The two options I have narrowed down are Century C2-SP & Free Spirit Hi s ive, both 13ft models. This is due to wanting a long range rod without being too stiff when playing fish like the C2D or Hi s 200. However with this price range I have thought about custom builds but not too sure who and how i go about customising new rods.
Any help with builders, Customisations, recommendations or just general opinions on my two choices is appreciated.

Cheers
