....except you may to raise your game and stop catching pike bandies in order to get a bend on a 10 weight :lol:

Nah, it's the loops that count - ask Alan if you don't beleive me!  :lol:

[Inchlaggan]

Loops with a budgie and a #10?
For pike?
Why?

[Wildfisher]

Why?

Alan will explain this in the special way that only Alan can.  :lol:

I also have the expedition and its great, especially if your walking into lochs. Have a more expensive rod now but the shaky is nearly just as good.

I just bought an Expedition XT  9 foot #10 weight from

https://www.tackle2u.com

£55 inc. shipping.   Can't really go wrong at that I think.

Or maybe I could go wrong. They were advertising  a rod they did not have in stock and won't be getting back in stock.

I got my money back.

Back to the drawing board.  :roll:   :lol:

I'll try that one next Sandy.  I just ordered one from some lot in the North East of England. Just on 50 quid inc shipping.

Yes, chancy area, I know.    :lol:

I got the Expedition XT  9 foot #10 today. Now THAT'S what you call a stiff rod.............................. :shock:

[Wildfisher]

Yesterday I was playing with the Expedition XT  9 foot #10 with a Wildfisher #10 WF.

Wow....................................    :shock:

That is certainly going to propel those big pike flies.  :lol:
