Very nice rods. The 6 and bait is reasonably stiff if you want a solid rod for big swells and rough ground . The 4 and bait is quite a bit softer and is more of a general purpose surf rod.

Gidday Kev

I use the anyfish rods and I really rate them. There are two rods worth considering. The first being the 6 and bait. It is very stiff, a little heavy, but if you can bend it, you can cast a bait a mile. I like stiff rods though, you may not. I would best explain the action as a bit stiffer than a 222.

The four and bait is much lighter and much more parabolic if you like softer rods, this is designed for 4-6 ounce, where as the 6 and bait would do it all from 4-7 ounce with ease.

They come with all the fancy tags, fuji guides and sliding reel seats ect...... I can't say enough good things about them and would recommend to anyone that they are worth taking a look at. The action is not for everyone, but you will never know if you dont take a look. If you want to know anything in particular about the rod, flick me a PM mate.

Good luck

Really really tempted to get one of these rods, heard nothing but good things about thing.

Sadly though, new tyres for the truck are more important just now..

Alright i'll ask then, what is the price range? Scuzzy or Neil or anyone, could you do a comparison between the AFAW vs Sonic vs say another rod in that price range. Chads write up above dose the AFAW rods justice but how do they compare to other similar rods?

Thats great Tookey. If you keep your casting distances under 240m and your fish catches under 200k. you should have no further problems.
