Monster mesh max advice

 Looking for a bottom bouncing rod to match a talica 12 with pe 6 boat braid fishing 16 or even more oz lead in 80m. I usually fish talica 8 pe 4, but want heavier set up for poor conditions needing more lead or stopping monsters quicker.

 

i was thinking pe 5-6 daiwa demon blood, but also picked up the monster mesh max mxc531-300 which is a 5ft 3inch 300g max rod. I think I preferred the monster mesh and it was over $100 cheaper. I liked the shorter length, keen on five to five and a half foot.

Any feedback on the rod or any other idea or suggestions or even rods you want to offload?

 

cheers

Not enough eyes in the Monster Mesh, the line touches when on a large fish.

Eupro

The Eupro Jigman OH PE 3-6 would be more than suitable. And has a firm enough action to suit bouncing 16oz sinkers and not load the rod so you get better hook setting power. They use Fuji rell seats and Fuji K series guides too. These are $295 for Fishwrecked members.

I saw one in bcf

Fri, 2013-11-08 18:31

 I did like it. Went to closing down sale and bought a pe 3 -6 ajiking that was similar but better and great price so bought it.

 

thanks to all for advice, I also decided no need for talica 8 and 12, but if I did would definitely have a look at the venom.
