I've been looking at one of these for ages either in 14ft or 15ft. A nice birthday treat ;D
And unsure over wether to get the 4 piece or 3 piece..
Any one used either..
I'm surrently on a 14ft greys G Series and like it so will there be much difference in action etc

Hello FP,fancy meetin you here!! ;D I've got the G series 13fter and had a go of the 15ft Norway on the Lochy a couple of months ago.They are very different creatures.Whereas the greys rod is light in the hand with quite a smooth delivery,the B&W is much heavier and something of a beast! Great casting tool though,everyone I know who has a Norway loves them.

The Norway is a cracking all round rod. I have never tried the 4 piece rod, but of the two 15ft rods, I would tend to go with the 9/10 weight ahead of the 10/11.
It's a lighter and less bullish rod to work with, but tough enough to handle any condition.

The Norway is a cracking all round rod. Cracking Rods that wont let you down Do you think "cracking" is the right word to use to describe a rod?

On the FishDee website there is brand new Norway fully packaged on the auction page rated fora 10/11 line. It has a current bid attached for £25 and the auction closes this Friday afternoon. Maybe a good opportunity for someone on the forum. www.fishpal.com/Scotland/Dee/Auction.asp?dom=Dee
