Opinion please - Black label Rods especially the BL-FT 762ULXS
Submitted by crasny1 on Tue, 2013-10-08 15:50
I have just been looking at matching a new Shimano Sustain SA2500FG with a new rod and came across the black label. Wanting to use this for Bream and especially flicking poppers etc at YF whiting. Living only a 2 minute walk from some nice Peel Estuary flats I wanted to give this a hot crack rather than compromising with my bunch of Pilbara designated flickies. And the colour matches the Sustain sooo well.
Thoughts appreciated.

daiwa rods are pretty nice
daiwa rods are pretty nice id go a 7foot model bit more of a allrounder unless you really need a long cast jmo

I dont rate Daiwa reels above Shimano
But I have to admit I do like their range off rods better. Dont know why but no Diawa rod has ever failed me, wheras some Shimanos have. I am looking at the 7footer Brg. I am no code expert and wrote this one down but I am certain it is the 7ft rod. They have a six foot version, but the extra foot allow a little versatility.
