Assassin Amia

[Andre Laas]

Hi Guys

I was wondering if any-one has used the new Assassin Amia spinning rod yet? It is 11" / 3.3m rated to cast 1-2oz spoons and plugs in the surf. I have felt the rod in store, and I really like the feel, lots of backbone, yet it's got a nice responsive tip which I am sure will launch a spoon or plug miles away.

Now I am looking for feedback from guys that have actually used this rod for spinning off the beach to help twist my arm...

... if you have tried this rod, please also give feedback in terms of the reel, line and lures used.

Thanks

Hi critter, I bought one and paired it with a Stradic 5000 with 30lb braid, it throws a mile, got my first shad on it yesterday evening, been throwing those CID spoons and plugs, my son got a 5kg garrick on it 2 weeks ago, very impressed.

Thanks Chris

I am extremely tempted... I have a Stradic 5000 with 30lb that will pair up to it nicely! Currently using the 9" air, but have always felt that another 2 - 3 ft would help get more distance.
