Got the 13ft 3.5 SU totally different animal. And they are a casting machine..if that's your thing 😊 As an example.. same effort compared to tx4 intensity...the helical beats it . What a rod for money 💰...brilliant
Free spirit rods normally quality (over the years I’ve had e class through to hi’ives) and rate the 13ft ctx’s spod/marker rods as a great compromise in cost =performance with 30 wraps being hit consistently with 20lb braid and a shock leader. I’ve always had ceramic guides against minima guides as I’ve seen some used with braid having grooves in them. 👍🏻
Quality I had a set of ctx 3.5 12fts used them till ruined them was gonna get set of creepers 10fts but ended up getting fox x3's out onto the next adventure or review 🎣👊
There not bad rods but 3 friends of mine have had them and the minima guides have warn grooves in them and free spirit replaced them there a lovley rod but lots of people have had the same problem . A shame realy as there a nice rod ...minima guide all groove no matter what make the grooves are
@df1991. yeah mate best line I have used! The 15 lb is like gold dust ain't it! I spoke to thinking anglers not long ago and they reckon in a next couple of months they will restock everywhere
Free spirit brilliant rod's

Awesome Darwin! Defo think I'm a green spirit convert 🤣🙈
Soft ? Look like the complete opposite in the video, hardly bending other than the very tip ?
What I mean is the tip mate, compared to other rods I have used 👍
