Austackle Rods?

Hi guys,
Just wanted to know if anyone has used these rods and reccommend them? I'm thinking of getting one or two in the dominator range. at $139 at fishin.com.au I think they are great.
Any help on this product would be much appreciated

Hey mate, obviously I've used the Austackle rods fairly extensively, being associated with them. Love my 1-3 dominator for cranks, and even plastics (mostly light/unweighted around pontoons) - find the soft action is awesome for not pulling hooks

thanks, Well these have just made it onto my christmas list. What reeels balance them? thinking a 1000 size shimano (stradic Ci4 and stradic fj).

Mate I find that 1500 size reels match the rods perfectly but you will have no issues if you go a 1000 or a 2000 size reel.
