Murphysegg 31 Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hi fisho's, I'm looking for a Surf rod to hang a Saragosa SW10000 off & am looking for some suggestions. I saw a few in store the other day & the SAMAKI Zing surf 1202 SXH caught my eye. Does anyone on this site have some first hand experience with them ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
southie THE BANGA 2,304 Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 My personal opinion (only handled them instore) They feel ok... I have heard that they dont rate sinker wise very well.... Ive got myself a Penn Allegence... Nice bit of kit and only set me back $130 for a Graphite surf rod it's pretty ballsy..... Havent caught a fish on it yeh but casted well and handle weight and bait no dramas! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Murphysegg 31 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Cheers Southie. Interesting, i did take a look at the Penn Prevail & the Allegence has some tough specs . Where did you pick up the Allegance from ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In your experience do you reckon it actually handles that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
