For a inexpensive rod there excellent the eyes are not good but i liked them so much i had new eyes put on the next season.There going on 3seasons of hard fishing and still perfect.

The eyes for the average guy are prob great i just found when you have guests banging them around they broke fairly easy.

I love mine, and have had no problems with the eyes. Given I am not a guide, so they don't go through the same wear and tear. There great because there both a good salmon and halibut rod.

Long live wild salmon!!!

Thanks guys, I bought myself one. Had my Diawa Eliminator broken on a fish on sunday. They were sold out of them. So I picked up a Talora. Seems like a solid rod!

When a hali rips these rods in the holder it's an adrenaline rush for sure. I have two and have no complaints!
