Just got a new toy to play with this summer! I called into local for a casual look around and picked up one of the new Black Magic light jig rods - Damn I was impressed! So impressed I got one. Super nice action, lovely bend with a good bit of backbone and sooo light, I cant wait to use it. Pics below, report to follow when the damn wind dies down a bit.   |

 I think it will make a very good slow pitch / light jig rod for snaps and Kings! |

Finally got out to test the new rod. Didn't get to max it out as biggest fish was just shy of 10kg but soooo much fun!!

Looks good alright, I found on their website where they are stocked if anyone else is keen to have a look. http://www.blackmagictackle.com/rods" rel="nofollow - www.blackmagictackle.com/rods ------------- Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, teach a man ta fish and he'll sit on the rocks and drink all day. |
