Hi Damien.....I'm not sure but I reckon you would be better posting this in the sea banter section....I know this is the general message board....but it is usually viewed by coase anglers.

Hope that helps you mate.......

Re: Blackrock Rods - anyone heard of used them

I have a Blackrock Geotrek Travel spinning rod 10/11' 5 section that's rated for 30-100 gr. I've used it for light beach / estury fishing with 2-3 oz weights, float fishing and spinning for the last couple of years. Seems to be well made and it's the rod that travels with me everywhere. Caught bass (4 lbs) Mackerel in threes on feathers, sea trout spinning & numerous flatties etc of the beach with it. Generally matchted up with a 4000 sized fixed spool. A great little rod.
