@@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL I know is a solid tip, that's why i think maybe it as a bit more carbon, all my Mifine rods have similar construction and most are solid tip rods, the 24 against the 40 usually will have a different spring rate and will make use of larger diameter tips, it's a hard concept for me to explain even in Portuguese, 24t usually looks more round with a "tighter" with a bit more rough texture on the fabric, this one looks a lot like my 30T solid tip rod.
@BFSFISHINGCHANNEL 15 сағат бұрын
@@RicardoReview hm I don’t really know that there is a standard difference in the appearance of the weave/pattern as there are different brands that manufacture the cloth? What I know about tonnage is that the higher the tonnage the stiffer the blank and the lower the amount of material is needed to achieve that stiffness. This is why higher tonnage/more expensive rods tend to be more fragile due to less material being used but also because the material is more stiff. Anywho, the rod could very well be 30ton or a blend of 24+30ton.

You would get a 10/10 if you had or mentioned a daiwa salamandura on this rod. You still get a 9/10 though a very nice match. Love to see how this fishes, its more in the category i use and 7'6" is sweet. I have been loading rods with a 500g weight and feeling their action and bend. You would have to judge what each rod can handle as some of my 15lb max rods can bearly lift 500g. You would think a rod rated to 15lb or 7.5kg could dead lift 500g easily but it's surprising.

Great video bro. Nice intro! 3-6g is pretty heavy for UL casting on spinning in my opinion. I mean, I can cast 1/16 pretty well on my tt rods red belly. But anything over 4.5g it casts almost the same. The rod tip bends a lot over 4.5 grams. I enjoy my Light 2-4kg 13 fishing rod at patto with 1/10-1/2oz for salt water. Daiwa exceler of course haha. Just about every aliexpress premium style spinning reel is copying the drag off the new Daiwa range. I mean for $80 it’s nearly half of what I paid for my exceler!!
