![]() ![]() It performed exceptionally, and I have been using this as my multiplier match reel ever since. I have to confess here that initially I wasn’t using the Tronixpro Envoy Tournament Mag to begin with, but soon into the match I changed my £200+ reel of an unnamed brand to the Tournament Envoy. This is where the versatility of the quick change of mag pressure really pays off for this reel, you can change quickly without any fuss or tweaking. On the flip side, with the wind changing direction later, I needed the opposite, a speedy reel where I could back the mags off to gain those extra few yards with the wind behind me. This would really test the reels magnetic breaking system to the full as a hard side wind can induce overruns and some pretty interesting bird nests. The competition was held in a stiff, north easterly wind for the first two hours before swinging to the south east. With my hectic match fishing schedule it wouldn’t be a surprise to you that the next time the reel saw water was in a match. The magnetic brake system is responsive and easy to control, so you can set the reel up exactly as you want without too much hassle. However, don’t let this incredible speed put you off if you prefer a slower reel. ![]() ![]() With the reel spooled and leaders attached it was time to hit the beach to see what this reel could do.įrom flinging out the initial few casts I was impressed with its smoothness, the speed out of the box without any tinkering at all is excellent, in fact it’s one of the quickest out of the box speeds I’ve ever seen. As a side note, I have four of these reels which have been heavily used in matches and pleasure trips and each one is still as smooth as the day I loaded them. Within the first few turns of the reel it was obvious this reel was a bit special, it’s incredibly smooth. I loaded the reel with 0.30mm Tronixpro Krystal XT line. So the only thing to do was to get it out fishing! Although I’m a bit of a tackle tart, it’s absolutely pointless having a reel that’s pure eye candy if it doesn’t perform where it matters. I wasn’t expecting a reel costing under £80 to look as good! It’s black and red colouring really does look the part. When I first received the Tronixpro Envoy Tournament Mag I was pleasantly surprised with the build quality. For a long time I’ve been looking for a fast, controllable, reliable but affordable good quality multiplier, so when I heard Tronixpro were bringing out the Tronixpro Envoy Tournament Mag, I was excited! With this my tackle also changes too, with a move towards using multiplier beach fishing tactics over my usual summer outfits with fixed spools. With winter firmly in place my match fishing focus tends to switch towards codling, dogfish and triple shots of whiting.
