Nice one Mike. Have ordered a pair. At £9.99 with a RRP of £18 they have to be worth a punt as he has gone on film endorsing them

Mixed views from me and this is just my experience. Tried one of Ians Bloke XL50's at Glentanar, thought it was really nice, bought one of the 7 weight ones for Sea Trout, and its pants, infact I woud say it was shocking. Best bit about it is the tube it came in. Will willingly let anyone have a shot as I would like a second opinion.

Plenty of good and bad reports online. Would suggest trying to get your hands on one first before parting with cash (as with any rod or reel you buy) and don't buy off the website as he sells the same rods and reels at a fraction of the price on ebay.
