Heres the photos of the big bronzie again with pics of what it was doing to the 24kg rod which don't bend too easily.

I do notice good backbone in the 50lb rod looking from the second last guide and looking very solid down to the butt as well as having a strong and what appears to be a reaonably fast tip. What make is that overhead rod Josh88 ? Seems to have black and gold wraps not unlike like my u.s. ugly bws bigwater heavy spinners.

Hi Jewgaffer,

I don't know the exact model but it was a Penn overhead rod that i think said something like GT special on it. It really handled that shark and the smaller one from the day before very well, i was amazed at how much pressure it withstood on that big shark.

Cheers
