Any thoughts on a 15 weight 8 foot blank, preferably one piece?

Struggling to find much apart from CTS and Sage.

UK waters indeed. Not for me though.
The chap is currently fishing 12 weight rods and has had a couple smashed  and one with a permanent set in it! :)
However, after speaking to a few people in Spain and France, I think we have settled on a glass blank.

100lb plus Cats from a belly boat.

I think we are going for a 10 weight glass rod after a lot of recommendation from Europe.
