Toby Spoon range — choose weight and finish
A straightforward metal spoon with plenty of flash and a fluttering wobble. The Toby makes sense for covering open water, provided you pick the right weight and keep that exposed treble away from the rough stuff.
84%Abu Garcia

GR40 range overview; length and line rating vary by model
A moderate-to-fast action, four-piece build and sensible fittings make the GR40 a tempting all-round fly rod. Just pick the version for your fishing — the little #3 and beefier #8 have very different jobs.
86%Greys
GR60 range — length and line rating not specified
A four-piece fly rod with a TOREON carbon blank, cork grips and a protective tube. The GR60 has plenty going for it, but choosing the right length and line rating matters more than the badge.
85%Abu Garcia
Spinning range; length and casting-weight version unspecified
A reinforced graphite blank, exposed reel seat and sensible fittings give the Vendetta plenty of appeal for predator fishing. Just match the version to your lures, rather than buying on the name alone.

Superflo Ridge 2.0 Power Taper floating
A slightly heavy weight-forward fly line for loading the rod readily and turning over less delicate outfits. Properly useful when you want authority rather than the softest possible touchdown.
87%Airflo
Tactical Taper · WF2–WF7 · Bamboo/watery olive
A weight-forward fly line for anglers who care about presentation and line control, with lighter sizes, a low-stretch core and neat connections. More about placing the fly than simply giving it a massive wallop.

8ft, two-piece: 7–25g medium or 15–40g medium-heavy
An 8ft lure rod with two useful casting options, a two-piece build and a clear job: working shads for predators. Pick the version around your complete lure weight, not just the fish you fancy catching.
86%Westin
7.5 cm, 9.5 cm and 12.5 cm versions
A paddle-tail soft lure with a useful trick up its sleeve: wriggling, belly-flashing movement at low speed. Pick the right size and rig, and you've got a tidy option for working predator swims without rushing through them.
89%Westin
Swim Glidebait range, focusing on the confirmed suspending versions
An S-curve swimmer you can work with a straightforward wind or a pull-and-pause retrieve. Just choose your size carefully: the little 9g version and the bigger 53g model need very different outfits.
85%Savage Gear

An aluminium body, sealed carbon drag and saltwater-resistant build give the SGS6 plenty of appeal for lure anglers who split their time between freshwater and the coast. Just pick the size for your fishing, not the biggest number on the box.
87%Savage Gear
6ft6 / 1.98m · 5–18g · 2 sections
The 6ft6, 5–18g SG2 Light Game makes sense for perch-focused lure fishing where neat casts and close control matter more than launching halfway across the lake.
87%Fulling Mill

81%Fox Rage
Range overview: C1000, C2500 and C4000
Three sizes, sensible weights and a straightforward predator-fishing brief. The Prism makes most sense when you match it to your rod and lures, rather than automatically buying the biggest.

The Spectre double-handers pair a powerful progressive action with a travel-friendly six-piece build. Pick between the 13ft #8/9 and 14ft #9/10 to suit your river, rather than simply buying the bigger stick.

86%Savage Gear
SG4 Fast Game two-piece range; multiple lengths and casting weights
A fast, powerful predator rod for anglers who want to work their lures rather than just chuck and wind. Pick the casting range carefully, though — the Fast Game name covers several different jobs.

Airflo’s Sightfree G3 gives fly anglers abrasion-resistant fluorocarbon with a little stiffness to help turnover. A handy option for nymphs, buzzers and wet flies — just don’t confuse low visibility with actual invisibility.

87%Savage Gear
8cm Cannibal Shad, covering the LB single lure and mixed-colour kit options
