How much will the shippingcost be for a BD 200 to Norway?

Could this rod be good as a multipurpose rod (smaller GT, Cubera, Rooster and more) or is it more a pure tuna rod?
I know its developed for tunafishing.
This will be my first popper/stickbait rod and I have a Stella 8000 H (-96) with 10000 spool and a 10000 FA
with 16000 and 20000 spool to match it . Wich one would you suggest to be best?

Best regards
Frederic

Hi Gotland,

These are good questions, i am interested in getting some more info on this rod, would you care to share replies on these questions? thanks

I would have shared them if Ive got any. Ive got answer for the shipping cost thats it.

By the way I ended up with the BD 100 as a stickbait/swimbait rod and is now considering a shorter and more powerfull popperrod. Have been looking on the Smith Keylouh STK-77, JM GT monster 78. BD 200
Im not looking for a pure GT-rod for 100lb+ GT:s. Im more in search of a multipurpose rod capable of 150-200g poppers.
And Im a beginner and have not the possibillity to feel or even look on a rod before buying because there aint any shops in my country with this type of gear.
So I would be very glad for any input here. And I can mention that Im 180cm long experienced angler but not with popping.
I ve also considerd the Shimano caranx caibutsu and the 7,6 OTI as an budget alternativ.

There is not link from jdmtackle.com to this forum. Somebody was posting in different forum about shipping issues from jdmtackle.

Hi Gotland,

Thanks for your replies.

I have been investigating the BD200 I'd say 150to 200gm defintely out of its league, in fact I don't think there is a "'multi purpose" rod to suit 150 to 200gm poppers, this is a specialised category suited to PE10 to 12 rated popping rods, there are many on the market, look at Smith Komodo Dragon, Ripple fisher, carpenter etc etc, temple reef will also have a rod to suit. If you want a good rod they are not cheap.

Good luck, I'm sure others can add to the list.

Cheers
Andy

Hi Randy. Is your shop open for walk in business or is it strictly internet sales?
