Sam Ross –
The rod feels responsive and easy to cast. The reel works smoothly with the backing and line. I’ve used it for several trout trips in Tasmania and it performed well in both still and moving water.
Rachel MacDonald –
Good balance between sensitivity and strength. The line and reel combination is reliable. A bit heavy for very light trout, but overall solid for the price.
Alan Clark –
The Cordura tube is durable and keeps everything secure. The floating line casts well and the rod has excellent feel when fishing in clear streams.
Joan Allan –
Set up quickly and works well in the field. The backing holds up well after multiple casts. Would recommend for beginners and intermediate anglers.
