Title: Assassin spinmaster 2x heavy
Post by: Jaybennie on May 11, 2013, 04:38:39 PM

Hi guys, I am looking at purchasing the Assassin Shoregame Spinmaster 2x heavy rod in the near future.
just a few questions;
Would a Sustain 8000 match up with this rod, or what reel do you recommend! I already have the Sustain 8000 and I am hoping to get away without buying a new reel as well!
The rod is rated as 2-5 oz. How well does it cast 2 oz? Which weight lure is the optimum for this rod?
Any info about the rod that you might think is useful, would be much appreciated!
Regards, and hope that your arms are stretched to capacity soon.

Hi, the spin master is a great rod. the sustain 8000 will fit perfectly and throws a 3oz lure best but will throw a 2oz no problem. I work for iFish tackle wholesalers and we are the manufactures of the rod.
