Advice on a new spinning rod
Hey guys! Had a disaster this week as my missus shut the car boot on my 8ft teknos and snapped the tip beyond repair ggrrrrrr
was thinking about just getting the same rod again but spotted the shimano vengance while looking. Just wondering if anyone is using one and what they think about it. I'll be matching it with my shimano rarenium 4000 so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Cheers

I use the Shimano Vengance 10 to 50g and i absolutly love it. Cant speak highly enough about it, fantastic rod and fantastic value. I use it for everything from metals, hard and soft lures for Bass to Wrasse, Pollock and fresh water trout.

€45 for a rod which you won't have any issues with.
Result straight away.
I use the rareium myself also.
You can't go wrong.

Great rod for the price, I got mine for the boat and have had smoothie and ray on it no problem.
The best things in life aren't things.

Re: Advice on a new spinning rod
use the 240 cm for spinning and the 210 as a light boat rod, both excellent. I'm sure there's better out there but not at the price....75 quid for the pair of them
