Very happy with it for braid and egg whisk at ground level fishing very heavy ground in the winter with big baits and up to seven ounces but returning to cliff fishing with Alvey and yes it copes.
Use century ss and old raptor as well which work but not great with Alvey due to ringing and don’t want to alter, so then figured the mk2 was beefed up which Julian confirmed and ringing great for Alvey casting wise with braid so got me thinking
