Didn't want to put this in Finatics thread but also saw some very nice looking overhead reel SP rod's at my mates shop. Its callled a Quantum Cabo. Looked and felt awesome. Does anyone own one? Or used one? ------------- Skirt Pulla |

Whats your Quantum like to fish with Boulder. I'm a great fan of overhead reels for SP fishing and I've got an pistol grip Starlo on the way but after seeing, feeling, touching the Quantum I was very impressed. Don't know what to do. Damn I shouldn't be allowed in Tackle Shops, probably gonna have to save up and buy both now ------------- Skirt Pulla |

Like most brands Quantum have a variety of different price leveled gear..
Cabo's near the top, had a play with one a few weeks ago at the wholesalers plus a tour edition overhead that was outstanding also, hope to bring one along to SHB for a play

I really like the Quantum blank so much that when the guides went crappy (they were only fresh water guides) I paid twice what I had paid for the rod to have it redone with the guides of a shimano rod that had failed the boulder destruction test. Its now my go to shallow water set ------------- http://www.boulderguiding.co.nz"> http://www.boulderguiding.co.nz">www.boulderguiding.co.nz |

Interesting that Boulder, I also liked the feeling of the blank the Cabo is built on but don't know what blank it is. The Fuji alconites will handle the salt though ------------- Skirt Pulla |
