I’ve spent the better part of this past year searching for a lightweight spinning rod that’ll hold up to my abuse. I’ve owned several light rods, but I’ve actually broken several of them lately. I’m rough on my spinning rods especially; they’re the rods that stay in the front seat of my truck for quick pond trips and work trips alike. They get battered and bruised, so I’ve been needing something that can take it.
After using the Abu Garcia Villain 2.0 Spinning Rod for the past year, I can confidently say that it’s one of the better spinning rods I’ve ever used. It doesn’t even feel similar to the first-generation Villain series. These rods are completely revamped and I can’t believe the difference it has made.
