Just had a nose’y rob … not a bad price for what you get 👍🏻👍🏻 Very tempted, very ! Will have to let the fishing stuff I’ve already bought simmer out Sharon’s head , but I’m think I will have to snag one of them 😁

have you tried the fly ?
 
Not had chance yet , am in Devon at end of month and planning a fly day then so that will probably be first chance ….

I usually fish a lot when I’m away on holiday , Greece , Italy , Mexico … it will be perfect for that as it will cover all options …
 
I’m so far impressed with the quality, casting action and the versatility, the one rod will do me for coarse , fly , and some saltwater lagoon or light rock fishing . The company stress that they will provide a good guarantee and good customer service . The reels seem good quality but you can buy the rod blanks without the reels if you already have .

Where are you going in Devon mate, I am South Dartmoor and if you are going fishing……..I’m your man! 👍😉
 
After reading Robs review and other reviews of these "Rigged and Ready Travel Rods".......I have hit the button on one.
The others I have...... are a tight fit in the suitcase and I worry about damage the way the suitcases are grown around by the baggage handlers :rolleyes:
This rod will fit with room to spare....bonus :thumbsup:

I went for a slightly different model that has no fly option......but I am happy with that :)

Went for the "Predator"

Will be looking around at some suitable lures now........all good fun.
This will be a rod I can leave in the car/campervan for those opportune sessions that crop up :thumbsup:


Happy Days :)
 
Really nice bill 👍🏻 I’ve been look at travel rods for around a year now lol might hit the button at some point…. interested on your opinion on this 👍🏻 Nice price also 👍🏻 Get the fish caught sir 😂

From what Rob and others have said....they are tough and robust rods built well.
