    5 Star Review  After years of hearing how effective SPJ was and watching many a you tube video but not actually steering away... read more from the norm. I contacted Matt and asked if I could jump on board Silver Halo for a trip and some tuition. I took the opportunity to use the onboard kit and Wow I was not disappointed. Matt put us on the fish and with a couple of drifts under his watchful eye and a few pointers taken on board, I was soon amongst some quality hard fighting double figure Pollock. The Joker Slammer was the jig of choice in varying colours throughout the day. A cracking day on board Silver Halo. I have since purchased a quantity of gear from Matt, to get my SPJ fishing off the mark. Thanks again Matt for converting me from the norm.

They have just the right action to make pitching your jig seem really easy and have plenty of grunt down low to cope with hard charging double figure Pollock. Build quality is excellent and the guide train is really well thought out. Highly recommended
