Hi Jon
The coral viper is not availeble in Europe.
Danish taxes outside EU is 25%
So if you have any other suggestions i would apriciate it.
Cheers

Not sure if you can find Smith or Hots rods in Europe. I've tried the Smith WRC 80P/35 and Hots Gipang 83H and both work quite well with stickbaits and poppers up to about 150g. I've not tried 200g lures on the Gipang 83H thou. Chuggers don't work as well with the two rods cos the soft tip absorbs the chugs. Good luck in your search

Hi $ 1,50
I actually have the carp. sp80m for chuggers (came today from seawoodtackle) . I just need a rod for stickbait, dont like to change lures.
I gues its a luxury problem.
I took a look at the Gipang 83H i like, saw in action on a hots dvd.
Any idea what the rod weight is.
I asked at Seawoodtackle if they could get it for me.Will wait and see.
Thanks again
Michael

Hehe. I'm also a person who prefers to have a dedicated stickbait rod and chugging rod on trips so that I can interchange whenever i need.

Unfortunately I don't own the Gipang 83H and can't find any listing of the rod's weight in any websites. The Hots website also seems to have problems opening. Maybe you can get seawoodtackle to check the weight of the rod for your consideration?

Hi $1,50
I think im becoming a tackle hore. its cool, cant get enough.
I got a pm from a forum member who had been at the Andamans, think it was last week. He recommended the Hots 79XH. The list keeps growing
I mailed seawoodtackle so i will wait and see. Jignpop.com stocks both rods, amongst several other hots. Me have too make a lot of money, soon
