insolent Posted November 23, 2006 Posted November 23, 2006 (edited) Hi Jani Below is the Blue Water Ugly Stick range which is in Australia, I'm pretty sure the 37kg models (80lb braid) would handle 400g jigs.

JaniFIN Posted November 24, 2006 Author Posted November 24, 2006 Thanks, looks like good rods, but i cant byu it from here I have now this rods: Euro Gold 185cm, solid, 50-80lbs and Euro Gold 185cm, solid, 80-130lbs but it is too stiff for Pollock! I need more flexible, but that kind rod , that i can use 400g jig. So 400g jig it is not 400g in water, because it floating littlebit. That ugly stick i can buy from here: Ugly Stick BigFish 210 and 240cm 15-30lb. And 195cm 10-50lb, i thik about that, but is it too flexible? I dont know, i try get one for testing. Is it not so bad price here 10-50lb only 60€. We have been now 1 week +3 - +6 C and allmoste everything snow melt, next week (i hope) snow and freezing weather come back. Usually we have that time -5 - -15 C. Btw. I reservation next summer one week trip to "fisherman paradise" Röst island in Norway, is it expensive, but it maby my only trip next year.
