*I like the way it feels **enjoyable.fishing** recommend and cast, time will tell I only used it once but it seems to work well....*

hi John I am so glad you have reviewed the Kanji, I bought the 2.7m 70g just over a month ago, now I’ve never owned a spinning rod before but I was so impressed with the feel and action of this rod I was feeling very good about my purchase and now having watched your review singing the praises of your Kanji I am now over the moon with my purchase as I respect your opinion and honesty. Long may you continue with the varied content and the excellent way you present your videos.

Really enjoyed your review. It is the way you talk about the rod and it’s capability then demonstrate the fact with one of your videos

What can I say, im addicted to your videos! Can't wait to go fishing on a boat like you🥰😄

been looking for another rod and I take your advice and views seriously so looking forward to getting one. Going to a Place called Nelligen today on the Clyde river for the weekend and looking forward to it. Great review Thanks John.

Nice rod review John with some nice clips to show it in action. Great stuff mate, Don from South Aust.

Nice informative update John. The Nomura rod really does look unusual in White, but I quite like it too! Off to do some ££ research! Stay safe & well.

Nice review John well explained as usual keep safe tight lines

Well!! That settles it then John! (You might recall I've asked a couple of questions about this rod on some of the videos!) That blue shark clearly demonstrated it amazing through-taper characteristics very well. Thanks again John.

What a review pal cracking and what a rod to be honest could land a train with that.All the very best from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My surf-fishing rod is white, and that's what I said when I got it; "Why is it white?" Once I started using it, the color really didn't matter anymore...as long as there's fish on the other end! Thanks for another great video!!

Great review John 👍, I've got the saltwater version the orange one they are brilliant fishing rods 🎣

Not surprised you're wearing your shades with the colour of that ha ha. I quite fancy one of these, my first IZU blew up into 4 pieces but my replacement has been fine. Cheers for another great review ending in my bank account being a few quid lighter!

You have a great new job! I really liked it. I will be waiting for new videos on your channel.

Nice rod John, anyway having seen your review on your PFD, I bought one, and yesterday I used it for the first time, on a boat fishing trip out of Rhyl, it was brilliant, I didn't know I had it on, so it'll be worn when ever I'm on a boat or the rocks, so thank you 😊

Hello John. I appreciate your reviews (and all your videos) and was in the market for a new lure rod so invested - first trip out on the north Cornish coast rocks the ‘unbreakable’ rod broke (600mm from tip). Quite bizarre as it was under very little pressure. Awaiting replacement from supplier who believes it must have been damaged in transit to me. Keep up the good work from someone that’s fished the Cornish shore for nearly 50 years.

Awsome stuff mate! Inspiring as always, i've just started my own channel based on spearfishing and fishing in The Great Barrier Reef.

Many thanks for your review as always difficult to know in a shop if a rod will feel right when fishing with it. Seems like the type of rod I was looking for so just ordered one. Cheers

Whilst watching your videos John I have been impressed with that rod. Just checked the prices on line and honestly they are way better than I expected, I'm tempted. Great to have a long term review from you, which I feel I can trust. Now you just need to put a video together with some tips on how to convince my good lady that I need another fishing rod. ;) All the best to you and the family matey.

i bought a 2.7 m last year they are fantastic,i matched mine with a baitrunner DL6000 and its pleasure to use

Been using mine for a year now and never had one issue and I have put it through its paces ... Any fish no problems 👍🏻 It has out thumbs up of approval anyway 👌🏼🐟🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I recently purchased a 60 to 80 gram 7 foot rod which I use for light to medium boat fishing and Jerk baiting for pike. First time out I had a nice smooth hound and a small tope along with long pollock and cod etc. Great fun, so light and sensitive. I have a trigger grip on mine so I use it with a small baitcasting reel.

Looks a good piece of kit John.....thanks mate....Bob(IOW)

Nice review John, the rods got a good bend on it mate. It makes a change to see a white rod considering most of the older rods are black, brown,dark green etc. I think the only downside would be the cleaning haha. Take care mate, be safe.👍👍🎣🎣🎣

I have two of these rods. Use them for everything, from spinning to stalking carp!

£54 from spain free delivery bargain love your channels john keep up the great work

Hi John, These are my favourite Rods. I have 3 of them up to the largest one at 70-130 gram. They are a joy to use. 10 foot 40-80 gram is just awesome but hard to get hold of now. I even fought a Seal on this Rod with Mackerel Feathers. No problem. I waited 3 months to get this Rod. Stevie in Fife.

Looked everywhere to find one of these rods No one in UK seemed to have 2.4 40 to 80 gm eventually found supplier in Spain at a very good price well worth the effort

That looks like a great rod. I'm coming around to the colour too.

I'm guessing that fly rod wasn't labelled unbreakable then... Great video. I've been looking for something for slow jigging from the yak, but now's the challenge of finding one in stock!

I have one of these and an 8’ 20g to 40g shakespeare ugly gx2 which is also a fantasic rod for the same sort of money. Between them they cover all my bases from rocks, light beach, boat, pier etc for all species from small mackerel to decent cod, bass ling ect. All for little more than £ 100 the pair. Matched hose with a pair of Catana rough ground for winter beach fishing and everything is covered for less than £300 for 4 great rods

I just received the same rod only 3m and I can't wait to use for nice pikes..

I was looking for a second rod will look into those 👍

that's looks much better than my tree branch string and marshmallow.John . Great teaching video .Thanks lad.

A handy size rod and a great review, thanks John tight lines

I have just snapped a 1 month old Ugly Stik 12-20, snagged the bottom, put the rod down to grab my line stick, picked the rod back up by the top section, having forgotten to flcik the clutch open, drifting boat tightens into rod and ping it lets go. Anyway here I am again, this time replacing a tip action Ugly Stik with a different beast all together, the bend in the Nomura goes down to the butt. Good looking rod.

I'm still using my rods from my teens my 8 ft Abu Garcia crossfire and my Diawa Whisker fly rod 😎

"hold my beer, watch this" lmfaooo

Interesting...although I'm still fixated on Lobster and fat brick chips...a little lemon mayonnaise or sweet chilli sauce...I suppose a token vegetable might colour the plate up...uff... Great upload and thank you for your time 🤗

some nice fish you got with that rod

Seems to be a nice rod, whit a parabolic action, most of the rods today have tip action!

thumbs up John.... Del..

New Scrubsider from Hazey channel.....looks awesome mate

Great rod watching your vid,brought a blue shark in!! ,plenty strong. John what was the rod you were using when you caught the pb Coalfish ,the light grey butt one? Many thanks for the info and entertainment 👍 tightlines

Great review John. Is that the lure rod or the bait caster rod?

I like it, do you ever have a issue with 2 piece rods coming apart ?

Hi there again. I’ve just bought a numora kanji 3.00 70-130g your expert opinion, would this be ok to use float fishing as well off a pier. Cheers Alan 👍 love your show, learning lots of good info 😁

They must be good, as since I bought my 2.4 30-70g they’ve gone up £30. Still good value though and an excellent review, as are all your videos.😁👍

As outstanding as ever and a cracking rod. No notification at all for the video though....Odd

Love mine John

Nice road bro good buy

I had the exact same rod and couldnt fault it ....it is breakable tho 😊, admittedly i did break it by forcing my seat back onto it in the car ( accidentally ) Ive ordered another tho , that was a good review john , totally agree with your comments

Thats unbreakable...... hold my beer watch this!!!!!!! Hahahaha Quality mate as always it's a great rod its on my whish list lol. Tight lines mate 🎣🎣🎣

Would this work just as well in other bodies of water or would the length be a hindrance you think??

HI. When you set the rig for that rod do you use any weights ? or is just the lure?

Great video could you do a video where you go fly fishing please thanks

John cracking video. is the rod expensive to buy I never heard of them in Ireland. cracking boat fishing and rockpooling with your family. Frm.dublin

Ta fishing has one of them

What's the length from the reel seat to the butt end? Just wonder if it's any good for kayak fishing with it being in the ideal 7ft range? In the seated position, I wonder if the butt be too long to either dig into you, or just be too unwieldy around the kayak?

Great review, John. Could you shed some light on the slow jigs you're using at the moment.. brand, weight etc. Thanks in advance👍

Would you look at that I got first comment!! Good to see you bud!! umm, nice rod if can say. 👍🏻🤣

Thats a real view of a fishing rod, tried and tested.

What company are the guides on this rod? Is there a big difference in blank speed between the 40-80 g and 30-70 g versions? And would you buy this rod a second time?

can see the white rod much better in the videos, handy when seeing a bite '')

I notice that they do 3 sizes 2.4m, 2.7m , 3.0m What size would you say is a good all rounder ?? I really appreciate your information bud.

Where did you get that rod wud it be possible for a link love ur vids pal 👍 👍

Have you ever used any of the Nomura reels? I’ve been looking at matching this with a Nomura Hiro Evolution 4000 or Nomura Hiro Alu 4000. Or if anyone on here has used either of these reels?

Does anyone have experience using the Nomura Samurai? I bought the 7-35g spinning rod but cannot find any review or information online/KZfaq at all. Not had the chance to go out yet as it’s actually a present for later this month. Thank you

What's the best thing to look for when it comes to sea rods and how mucth would u spend to get something farely decant I domt wanna spend loads I was thinking off maybe like 70 to 80 I'm after a nice light weight sea rod easy to cast with a farely sensitive tip and also a bass rod for spinning ome thing I'm trying to find out is If u have a sensitive tip would that make the tip move all over the place in the wind as it would be nice to have a sensitive tip but something that dont blow all over the place in the wind

How did I never know you had a fish locker workshop channel???

One of my favourite rods by far unfortunately I snapped mine and not got around to getting another but will be soon

What’s the best reel for this rod mate?

Hi mate can i ask where did you get the rod? i have been looking cant seem to find many places selling them. seen them on ebay but in the picture it looks telescopic

7:16 At that point, is where you'd expect the rod to snap! Looks like an excellent rod with a wide mix of power when you need it and flex/sensitivity for sure at the very tip. It would be an interesting study of what angle to hold the rod at different forces on the rod, or if it makes a difference at all in how well the rod works.

The 30 70 g for bluefish is good?

super

how do you transport it did you buy a new bag or just use string to keep them together.

Isn't that your carp rod ?

Can someone let me know how to use the imp, I try but the lugworm gets in the way.

Powerfull

Do you like the guernsey guys?

Can you cast unweighted soft plastics with a rod rated 40-80gms?

Is it me or have you gone grey on top over night. (Strip light above? ) 🤣

Not sure about you but I like to get my rod and reel the same colour combination

Give the cork a few coats of varnish. Easy wipe down. Problem solved.

Top Drawer Purchase

I named my Rod Stewart.

Nomura kanji 😂

Nomura no good rod
