Hi JT,
Welcome to Sealine..
Those are nice rods to start with mate....

I had one and I looooved it ( broke in the meantime

)
But I will definetly buy one should I find one laying around somewhere...
In the same catagory is the Blue Marlin Bazooka which is also
a nice rod considdering it's class. I've got 2 Bazooka's for casual angling and I can cast a M 1.5 125m easily....
The longbow's should work for now but, if I were you, shift over to Shimano XTR type reels and you'll be amazed what those puppies can do with those reels attached..
