Title: Old 130 Internationals on Murray Bros 180lb meatsticks
Post by: Miles Offshore on February 02, 2018, 12:18:59 PM
Just thought I would show off my friend and fishing buddy Mannys 130s on 180 lb class rods. Waaay Cool old school, He has 3 of them. I had never seen 180 class rods before, didnt even know they existed. Suckers are waaaay heavy. He was talking about selling them last year as 80 lb class is about as heavy as we like or need to fish plus just picked up some new 70 vsws to supplement the 80's.

Nice!

I like the bridge design better on these guys then the II's.  It is easier to remove if any corrosion or salt deposits form.
