Shimano STC Spinning or Daiwa Powermesh Game Travel???

Hi all,

Am planning on visiting Vis (I live in UK) later this summer and want to bring a decent travel rod. Best options seem to be:

Shimano STC Spinning 2.70m 20-60g

Daiwa Powermesh Game Travel 2.70m 20-60g
www.waveinn.com/nautical-fishing/daiwa-p...e-travel/137001961/p

Both look decent 'budget' options; but there are no reviews out there to compare. Would anyone recommend either?

(I also looked at Major Craft Crostage Mobile CRX 964 LSJ but its packing size is bigger for standard size luggage)

Many thanks,
Barney

Hi Barney!

I don’t have experience with the rods that you mentioned, but this combo works for me:

Major Craft Solpara SPX-902LSJ / 274 cm / max 60 gr / Regular Fast / Light Shore Jigging

+

Daiwa BG 3500

OP is asking for travel rods.

Go for DAIWA rod.
I heard that is decent one. Or you can get in Croatia Savage Gear LXNT and bring it back to UK after holidays. 😊

Hi!
My advice is
www.nordfishing77.at/savage-gear-multi-p...39WKLy0aAlHIEALw_wcB
It is quite nice and strong rod with fast action.I used it allready for two years only CW on my opinion is more like 20-50g with 60g it is little bit suffering..I also have Abu Garcia wich is absolutly fantastic rod to me but I have it 5-30g wich is to less for you but I saw this Abu Tormentor travel 20-60g wich i belive it is great and quite cheap rod.

Silly me.

But, as far as I can see, our forum colleagues offered some nice solutions.
