I fish with a pair of Leeda icon elite match rods rung for multis, brought them off wingnut (true gent) when I saw them advertised on here. Found them a bit strange to cast at first, the light tip felt like it was folding away on the power stroke, but once I got used to it I’ve grown to love them. They are now the first choice rods out of the shed. They are coupled with a pair of Diawa 7ht multis (black ones) with 18lb Diawa sensor and Diawa tapered leaders. 95% of my fishing is over clean sand with low lying rocky reefs. After buggering my shoulder in Afghan, I found I couldn’t cast well with stiffer rods, but the icons I can match the distances I used to, with a 4-5oz lead they are lovely.
