This is Iain\u2019s third Hot Torpedo. He already has the 4 and the 10. This is the 8 and we are building his HT6 next week. That\u2019s most bases covered!!

Of all the HT rods, surprisingly perhaps, it\u2019s the HT8 that I seem to use the most. It was originally developed as a SW all-round flats rod. When we launched it, I likened it to \u201ca canon with finesse\u201d \u2013 which sums it up nicely I think \ud83d\ude42

As part of our testing we took a range of 9\u2019 8WTs from different manufacturers and compared them side by side to three of the later prototypes we had. As far as I can work out many 8WT rods appear to be designed for heavier lines! Tip bounce is also a common problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mine has caught an 11.5lb Brown Trout in the Kola Peninsular, 16lb Carp in Jersey, 17lb Giant Snakehead in Malaysia and some rather nice Bonefish in the Maldives. It was blasting Ladyfish a few months ago! What will you catch on yours? \ud83d\ude42

Incidentally here in the tropics I use an SA Bonefish 8WT line on mine.
