... and saw and hada play with a few of their latest blanks. Weakened to the point where I even selected one of their new Nano rods for a one-handed flick stick for poppers etc in the islands (or indeed, anywhere).
Amazing how light they are yet how incredibly powerful. Seeing them lift huge weights on these micro sticks is an amazing thing. It will be awesome to see how these blanks perform when they hit the NZ market.... at the moment they are being snapped up by Aussie and the US!

They should upgrade the Enticer with a new blank before wasting time on a poppy rod.

I think... or strongly suspect, that any of their more recent popper rods, such as the one I have been using in the Sollies for hte last year or two, would be idela for sticks.... certainly worked for me up there anyhow.
Trouble is, no two people have exactly the same idea of just what a stickbait rod is, I think.

Mean! What sort of cost involved with the blank you got? I;m heading down there next week so I am going to have to stop in, again. They have many of the nano blanks in???
