chillfactor Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 No one will be able to tell you how far you might be able to cast them fella . As different people are better at casting than others. These rods were 80£ each brand new and are entry level rods which would suggest there not going to be casting tools so to speak. andy52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 I have 3 original fox warriors in 3lb there great rods but i don't think you'll be smashing the sunset with them, i could get about 100yds plus out of mine and my casting is pony at best, so with a good technique you may push 120. But like Chill said there not distance rods although that would depend on your distance required of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salokcinnodrog Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 The Warriors are the 'starter' rods, for regular distance work I would be looking at going for Horizons if you want to stay with Fox. Everyone is different, I may be able to push a Fox Warrior 100metres, but that is still a huge cast, yet with a better rod I could go to 130m. Cheaper rods do tend to soften up over time, so when you get them you may be able to hit 100m, yet within maybe two years the rods have softened to the extent you are only hitting 90. The Warriors are in a generation, so how old they are may make a difference, and how much work or use they have had will also contribute. If they have been regularly used then they could be softer. Just because they have been cleaned and look good does not necessarily mean they are in tip top condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit to ask, just how cheap are they? dalthegooner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
