Jason says: Recently, I’ve been using the 2.75lb fish-playing versions for most of my fishing. Although they’re not ideal for fishing at distance, they’re great for close to medium-range work. The wands are brilliant all-rounders and are ideal for casting PVA bags or sticks. They boast AT100+ Biofibre blanks and Ti-lite hardlite guides. They’re great fun for playing fish on and should suit most angler’s needs. Although not the cheapest rods on the market, you do get a heck of a lot of carp rod for your money.

VERDICT
  • Performance: 9
  • Value: 8
A joy to play fish on.
