I have got your exact rod, Shimano T-Curve Inshore Series, 1 - 3kg. Matched with Sustain FG 1000 and 4lb braid.Awesome set up, perfectly balanced and light enough to cast all day! I Tried the same rod with a 2500, nowhere near as balanced!I can cast superlight plastics and hard bodies a mile with this set up, yet to have a wind not!Also had a cracking session on it recently with KG's to 50cm - still smiling at the fun this outfit gave me!!You would not be disappointed with this set up.Cheers,Tim
