Hi Poult. I have 2 of the warrior ES. I went for them as they have abbreviated handle which uses a combination of Duplon and shrink tube to create a matt, non slip central section (so I read), anyway, when the freezing weather starts they wont be so cold on the hands.
Are they any good? Simple answer, yes. When you hook a good fish the rod feels amazing and performs very very well.
To go with them I got 2 shimano re reels. one 6000 and one 8000, these reels are great for the price. In the shops there are about ?60 or under or if you look on ebay you'll find good ones like I did alot cheaper.
Rods ?45-?50 each, reels ?65 or under each.
Also have a look in the tackle section of FM to see what reviews other members say about rod and reels.
Hope this helps.
