This rod
differs to the 13 ft. version and not just because it’s longer,
(hence the name Big Beach). Does that extra foot make a
difference?
In the past
it made a big difference. Fourteen-foot rods used to be
bigger, stiffer, manlier type jobs; rods for big hitters and heroes.
But they were always a pig to use. This one, on the other hand,
isn’t. It not only has a ‘fishing tip’, but it’s combined with
a reserve of power when you really need it.
So, if it’s
a nasty day with the elements in your face and you need to up the
power, go for it. If it’s a beautiful day, wind behind you and
the sea’s flat as a dab, then let the rod do the work.
Our 14 ft.
Big Beach can be used by anybody. It is one of our favorite
rods of all time but ultimately it’s about personal preference.
Yours!
Try it.
