Gonna be a few differing opinions here but what would the ultimate stickbait rod be for throwing max 150g lures? For chasing kingys mainly in BOP/Mayor/White.

Carpenter? Ripple fisher? or the coming Synit Van Diemen's?

Blue chaser for sure, 84/22 would be my choice for that region

I like my Carpenter 83/21 a lot casts a mile and folds away to take the heat off the angler

The CTS popping blanks are worth a look if you can find someone to build it...various weights and lengths, the 8' 150 is a magic rod..

I used a fantastic opus bull it cast real well On the 1st cast and then broke on the 1st hook up, I would like to thank RA Conagans for helping me sort the issue, they did not even want to know, never returned calls nor emails I would not recommend them to my worst enemy

Yeehaa are the only shop worldwide that I am aware of too have current stock of the 83/35 (2 piece) and Carpenter currently do not have this on their production list for 2014.

 

The BLC83/21 and the BLC83/35 (2pc) were specifically designed for the NZ market and are extremely difficult to find anywhere else in the world.

You can find the 83/35 (3 pc) elsewhere but not the 83/35 (2 pc)!!
 
You will only find the BLC83/21 available through Yeehaa.

Hey Louis, if you're looking for a rod to match that Reel you just bought, you should look for an Offshore Illusion multi weight spin. Check out the website http://www.offshorerods.co.nz" rel="nofollow - www.offshorerods.co.nz . Best value for money rod around and great for stickbaiting kings.
