I had the good fortune to try out the new Hardy Jet SINTRIX 15ft 10 wt double hander today.
I tried it with a Rio iFlight Skagit, 30ft of T17 and a copper tube and it coped well.
Then tried the Rio AFS Hover, 10ft fast tip and an Alu. tube and it was excellent.
Next was the new Rio Scandi, again with a 10ft fast on it and the Alu. tube. Once again it was flying out.
It also handled a 65ft Spey line with a floating tip and a tube with ease.
Seems to me like an excellent all rounder and i thoroughly enjoyed casting it. Its light and feels more supple than the Zenith.
I will be adding one to the collection.
Thanks to Ian Gordon, speyonline.com and his very able assistant Tom Brown for leaving the rod with me for a few days..
Cheers
