Hi all!
I currently own 4x Fox Warrior S rods (12 foot 2.75lb) , which I bought 2nd hand for around £30 each! I use one as a marker rod and the other 3 as normal rods. I also have the Fox Warrior S Spod rod. They have done me well, but it's time for an upgrade.
I use a bait boat for most of my fishing, but that being said I do like going to linear Fisheries and I have a 72 hour session on Brasenose 2 next month where I know distance casting is a big advantage.
I like PVA bag fishing, and would like to buy some rods that are going to cover most eventualities and last me a while.
Rods I am considering:
Shimano TX2 12 foot Intensity (brand new £100)
Daiwa Infinity X45 12 foot 3.75lb (second hand £200)
Does anyone have any recommendations/advice/thoughts on the above? Especially if you think the second hand X45's would be worth the extra money?
Thank you,
Ben
