Andy Hull Posted July 15, 2019 Report Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) Morning all, I'm looking at getting 2 new rods, i'm currently looking at getting a pair of Shimano Tribal Velocity's At a Sale price of £50 each. Love the look and feel of theses rods but wondered if you guys can recommend anything in a similar price range that's any better? I will be matching these up with a pair of Shimano Ultegra XSD's or Shimano 6000 DL RB's Thanks for any responses in advance Andy Edited July 15, 2019 by Andy Hull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayvid Posted July 15, 2019 Report Share Posted July 15, 2019 Excellent choice of rods , I have them in 3.25 and was putting a small mesh bag on the hook 94 yards, The ones you are looking at will cover most angling situation you will find. welder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with all of the above. My nephew has three Tribal Velocity's in 3lb test and I have to say that in my opinion they represent excellent value for money. He, I and my son had a week in France early June and the rods performed very well indeed, landing fish well over 30lbs with ease. Ian.

smufter Posted July 17, 2019 Report Share Posted July 17, 2019 Not bad rods at all. A little bit heavier than others I have owned, but not unduly so. I had 3 (11' versions) which I have now passed on to my daughter and she loves them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
