johnno Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 (edited) Thanks for the replies guy's updated first post I thought it was a good deal myself Is the T-curve a better rod? Might go there this arvo Edited July 28, 2006 by johnno Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netic Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 The t-curves are a better rod but the backbon is also a good rod, i use backbones on my Tekota's for kings and smaller pelagics, They have never let me down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
