fox Virage
Fox is a coarse fishing company outcast,I doubt if they know a great deal about sea fishing.According to the description its like Harry Potters magic wand with a reel seat.It could even be a Martini rod!...any time any place any where!.Comment

Yeah I know its mainly a coarse fishing make, Just helping the lad with what he asked for its his choice if he wants to go for one, Personally i would add the bit extra and get an RT Axe or a Leeda Icon if funds allow him to do soComment

Also saying that..Leeda are more renowned for coarse fishing gear but the Icon beachcaster range are brilliant rodsOriginally posted by brix View PostComment

I had a look at one of those virage rods before, it was quite soft all the way through. Personally I'd do as already said and put my money elsewhereComment
