What do you think of it?
I've heard some pretty stupid comments about it by some clowns, the most amusing "it's poop, it's horrible and floppy and soft", idiot.
Fishing with the 13'7 reaction and 14' stinger, I found the reaction nicer to fish with, more sympathetic as the butt loads, at 5am and ice on the rod and cranky, you don't need to be just as precise to get a good result. On my "never used side" and a cripple, it was a beautiful rod. And there was even a sharp thing on the end
The same cork and finish issues as the stinger

For me the one thing guideline got right when they came on the salmon fishing scene was decent tackle at a decent price but i think theyre getting a bit over priced.

If I had £900 to blow I would buy one, happily. Anyone fancy a 14' stinger Looked through some video and it's only bending from the tip through to 2nd section with a 9/10 afs on, it lifts a lot smoother than the Stinger. Still to get hold of a 14'8 to play with. Leif is some man- cracking guy to speak to, the tips about the same as the stinger, just progressively bends.
