Anyone own or used a set of either with some views on them? I haven't been able to track anyone down who has any.
TIA

Contact Chris Palmer on faceache, he's built a few sets of atrex rods

Hi mate. I bought a set of Cotswold Rods Atrex SE's (12ft 3.5lb) a few months back.
I haven't had a chance to give them a thorough punishing yet, but early impressions are good. I've had a few carp to low 20's on them, and have only fished up to about 70 yds so far. They have proven to have a lovely action when playing fish, even forgiving enough on lively low doubles under the tip. I have also been impressed with their accuracy and absolute ease at putting a lead out (I'd say even better than my previous Harrison aviators!).
I'm definitely happy with my purchase so far, and the Cotswold builds are the nuts 👌

So glad you mentioned your last rods, I've just sold Aviators myself. Would be keen to know how they perform over 100 yards if you ever have the need 🙏
