Shimano Nexave BX Surf 130F

[red]

saw these on spottydogtackle for half price at £48. it says the RRP is meant to be £120. i emailed them and they said they'd do P&P for £20. i was looking for a 2nd rod that was rung for fixed spool but didnt want to spend too much and this seems to be in the range of what i was looking for. they had a review in total sea magazine on it and and said it was good but i was told to take them reviews with a pinch of salt.

Hi Red,
don't know much about them but if you pm Thighlines,i think he is using the same rod at the moment.To be honest anything from the shimano stable should be good,at least thats been my experience anyway.

not a bad rod for 50 notes , very light to hold and plenty of back bone , used one of these in iceland last year and had no problem pulling spurdogs to 15lbs out of a very angry sea that day,its no century but for the money i dont think you can go for the money..
