Sammy the Fisherman Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hi everyone, I am new to this forum but have been an ardent recreational fisherman for a long time. Although I have fished & caught many species my favourite is still bream!! Nobody can deny the feeling of catching a Jewie or Kingy or any other type of game fish for that matter, but there's still something special about bream.. I purchased a pfleuger trion rod about a year ago from BCF and attached a Shimano Symetre 2500 reel. I absolutely loved the feel and the strength of the rod. I have used it with both plastics & live bait (prawns, yabbies & worms) and have had great success with it. I recently ordered two more (for the price of one) from a US tackle shop. I now have 5 in total. They are all 2-4kg rods IM-8 graphite some are 2 piece and some are 1 piece. I was wondering if anybody else uses pfleuger and what your thoughts were? If not, what is your preferred gear for bream? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witha Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hi mate, got a pflueger trion 2-4 last week for a new baitcaster setup I wanted for fun gotta say great rod, stiff when you need it to be but supple enough as well. Mines more of a flatty setup as I use shimano ultralight 1-3kg stuff for my breaming, but I definitely would consider getting 2-4 or even a 1-3 of these for my next spin setup.

Catchin Jack Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I use a few Pflueger rods, got 3 Patriarch XTR rods which I really like as they are so light and I also have 2 Asaro rods which have copped a hiding and haven't had an issue with. Got a heap of their reels also which are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martymonsta Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Didn't realise the Trions were IM8 but will check them out as my next light spin rod. Marty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stash Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Me and my mate got trions with stradic ci4 2500s reels. Great light gear rods. Caught big KGs in SA and even Snapper on them. Love the feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tasksta Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Symetre and trion a match made in heaven! I have the 2500 and 4000 combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catchin Jack Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 One thing I like about Pflueger is the after sales service from Pure Fishing (site sponsor), they've always been so good to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
