Hey I had a backbone 10kg and was an awesome rod used it for bottom bashing for ages caught heaps on it and held up well but snapped it trying to lift a fairly large baldy into the boat and the tip snapped. Until it broke it was awesome and would recommend it.
always looking for a new challenge!!

i just
got a backbone elite every solid rod, very tough if theres a higher chance of hooking big bronzies
but the triton has been highly recommended and the only reason i got the backbone
was cos it was 99bucks at campbells.
its a lighter rod much more comfortable fishing
highly recommended by Ryan C
