couldn't ask for a sweeter set up.

Everyone that fishes with me that only wants to use one rod gets the 15/30 and is very happy with it.

Had fluke over ten pounds on them, bass to the mid 40's and blackfish to 14 pounds.
its a great fit for most of our inshore fishery in NJ

You gotta get some of these rods in your hands to get a feel for em. Some people like a softer tip or a stiffer rod like myself. Going to depend on how much weight you are going to be fishing. I have different rods for different weights.

What reels do you use on those two penn battalions?
