Mike Fox Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 Following the snapping of my tried and trusted Ugly Stik 20-30lb this year, I bought a set of 7' Rovex Integra Gold boat rods, a 12lb, 20lb, and 30lb matching set. I have used them for about 3 months, using all three lightly, catching rays, conger, tope, smoothhound and other species with no issues. They have a nice action, they're medium weight carbon fibre, with glass tips (like the Ugly Stik) and seem to be well regarded as a good budget rod. However, they're not quite to my liking, being slightly heavier to hold than my Kenzaki, and following my trip to Alderney Angling, I have bought a set of new lighter weight rods. The Rovex rods are now surplus to my requirements. I'd like £45 for all three, and can bring them along to the next club meet, if anyone needs to see them. There's a few online suppliers doing them, and if you want one example to look at, see here: http://www.veals.co.uk/acatalog/rovex-integra-gold-boat-1269.html PM me if you're interested.

great white Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 I would think that these would make excellent rods for juniors to start with Charlie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlieannear Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Not sure whether to give Dom a Kayak rod for that trip out- less butt for him to get tangled up with... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
