Re: Thoughts on high end bfs?
Thank you for your reply. I am familiar with Valley Hill as i have parts from them in my small ambassadeurs. Did not know they made casting rods suitable for BFS though!

Re: Thoughts on high end bfs?
I would love a few suggestion of higher end JDM (USDM is a hassle to get shipped to Sweden) offerings in production. Looking for a super sensitive rod for Jika/Free rig/link head/ned fishing for redfin perch in Europe. Fishing (often semislack/slack) 4-6lb flouro with an Aldebaran BFS reel. If posib...

Shimano 22 Expride 1610M-S
So I'm looking for a dedicated Jerkbait setup to throw lures like MB Vision 110 & MB Trick Darters. (1/4- to slightly above 1/2oz mainly) Many people say that the regular Expride 1060m is either the perfect Jerkbait rod OR that its to stiff and beefy for our Swedish waters chasing Redfin Perch. Over...
