Aerials are alright I mean it is a Star after all but next time you have a chance in the store, compare the Aerial to one of the Deluxe or Handcrafted(ones I use). The blanks are completley different. The Aerials are hollow as the HC and Del are not. Then the only diff between the HC/Del and the top line Plasmas are the guides(SiC on the Plasma).
While they both with land fish, the solid blank has more backbone.....I had a buddy of mine who works on a ton of rods replace one of my guides. He told me he fixed it but to not bring him another one. He says the Star Rods have more epoxy on them than any other rod he's ever worked with and are built like brick poopoo houses
