| New Uptider Hi Guys I am considering getting another uptider... I currently have a Shimano Beastmaster 4-10oz Uptider with an Abu 7000 reel which is a lovely setup but I would like to get a slightly more sporting uptider for those calmer days when I dont need 8oz to hold bottom! So......any suggestions on a 2-8oz uptider budget up to £170 and will have a SL20SH on it. Thanks in advance JOhn __________________ South Wales Angling Guide - Shore Angling in South Wales     |

| Re: New Uptider Hi john i have the 10oz abu suveran which is a cracking rod. if i was after a lighter rod i'd definatly look at the 8oz version. On the heavier rod you can still feel every bump from the fish so i can only assume the lighter version will nice and responsive in the lighter currents. john __________________ 2012 targets - 180 yard measured cast, 10lb bull huss, 12lb blonde, 10lb hound, 8lb small eyed, spotted ray any size |

| Re: New Uptider Suveran Pro uptide 10oz does it for me too.....super bite detection and more than enough power to tame big beasties ,yet no too stiff,you gan get a good fight from smaller fish with it too.....The 8oz version is a bit like a blancmange i`m afraid ,and now ABU have seen sense and reintroduced the 10oz version no competion in the choice reallly...  __________________ Mike..
