11ft 2 piece drennan acolyte ultra float rod

£130.
Mint condition original bag.
Perfect stream/beck/small river trotting rod.
Lines up to 4lb floats to 4g very tippy and extremely light little river rod.
It’s perfect for graying that’s a what I used it for predominantly with a 4 inch light pin. Made for the job

Don’t dismiss it as a silvers rod, it’s comfortable with 3-4lb chub on. I’ve had kamakasi trout on mine to over 4lb and the rod deals with it just as well as it does with a bag full of swingers

I’ll put pics up tonight but believe me it’s a flawless example.

I use an 11' ultra on a small heavily tree and scrub lined narrow side stream. Caught chub over 6lb and brownies over 8lb as well as usual grayling, roach and perch.
Yes you have to be more gentle when playing bigger fish but it's a great little rod and would certainly recommend it
