Just bought this old rod the other day for the princely sum of £20 . Its in very good condition, 12ft 6ins with i would say original eyes and whipping and its got over half an inch of spigot left. Iv had a few casts on the field with it ( before thunderstorm stopped play:mad: ) using a 5oz lead and a simple off the ground cast and i would say getting about 140 yds with it without much effort so well chuffed :D. But i cant find any info on it , other tigers yes but not this one . So thought id ask you guys if you know what type of ground , casting weight etc its capable of . Cheers :)
 
I had a 215t in the 80s and being 12ft 6 was an ideal rod for the pier,my mate had a 255 ts and used it all over the country in every type of ground,hegave it to a junior called shaun and he is still using it today were good rods in the 80s. davy.
 
Was my 1st proper rod when i was 14(ish) 20 year ago. Was a nice enough rod back then and was 1 of the cheaper centurys.
 
Well worth your £20! Had the same model as my first ever 'proper' fishin rod at the start of the 90s. As mentioned your best off using it as a pier rod I would think. A bit out gunned compared to the new rods. Bite detection wasn't great but it was fairly stiff so certainly not bad for what you paid!
