The Suntech FMX Keiryu extra stiff rods really are extra stiff. The 4.5 meter rod measures a whopping 67 pennies. It's a trout rod, but 67 pennies is carp rod territory! Unfortunately, I have not yet hooked a fish that would even come close to testing the rod's limits. A smaller fish will put a bend in the rod, just not a very big bend. When you hook a fish in the mid teens, you'll get a nice bend and a nice fight, but you know the rod can handle so much more.
