Very good for the price mate, I liked them so much I brought another recently now have three. They are not top end Barbel rods but they're fantastic for the money and I love them. If they catch Barbel and are comfortable to use I don't agree with splashing out hundreds, they're well worth the money mate!

I was looking at those as all the reports i found said it was an excellent rod for the money, but managed to lay my hands on a Korum 3G barbel for £40 so opted for that. Its 2lb t/c so i will double up as static carp rod when i go puddle chucking with my pole.

Fish don't check out the rods label before taking the bait. Down to prsonal taste and finances and making sure veerything else balances with rod.
