Yeah, i've been checking that pro cast for a while hey... but i see that they have excluded the pro cast with their lifetime warranty. So its between the pro cast, guide and the classic.

I have 4 Xplorer classic 2's. They have served me very well over the years. Awesome backup from Jandi trading is also a bonus.

If your budget allows, I would go with a Stealth Infinity.
Ganis.co.za currently has an unbelievable offer on the 8wt Infinity
