    Acolyte users??

    Very kind GE. The sections fit in the IM9 case I currently have but I still want to use that for the 13 footer. I'll take that off you please. If you're down here soon, we'll meet up (my round 😁), otherwise, when my back is better I shall pop up your way for a fish 👍 Steve

    Acolyte users??

    Seems like Drennan are missing a trick. Given the price and fragility of the longer acolytes, it's a shame they don't produce something to protect them...... Steve

    Acolyte users??

    Got the 15' plus at last and itching to give it a go but suffering with a bad back at the mo 🙁 Got to look at storage options now as suprisingly only supplied in a very flimsy rod bag. The last 'premium' Drennan rod I bought (13' IM9), came with a lovely padded case. Shame.

    Anyone know if there is much difference in weight action between the plus and the specimen? Steve

    Acolyte users??

    I've been using the old Drennan 13ft IM9 Classic for silvers and chib. Fantastic rod so I'm thinking more of the same (similar through action) with the Acolyte. Sounds like I may need to buy a hard case though 😁

    Acolyte users??

    Thanks Kevin. The last Drennan rod I bought came with a lovely padded case. I heard that the acolytes only come with a normal bag. Wonder if there is some sort of protective case I could buy? Steve

    Acolyte users??

    Apologies if not really barbel related but I know a lot of you guys are all rounders, so........ I'm going to treat myself to a 15 foot trotting rod. An acolyte is the obvious choice but are there any others that someone could recommend? Cheers, Steve

    Korum waist trotting tray, Is this a good or dumb idea?

    I've got one of these British made (to order I believe) and very reasonably priced. Not been used yet but looks good quality. Steve

    Car for fishing

    I've been looking for a Yeti for a few weeks now. Not many about and not cheap anymore. Heard good things about them 👍

    Hello.

    Hi Martin, Judging by your photos I think I used to fish in the same area , albeit a few years before you 😁 Loddon and Blackwater are my favourite rivers, like you say......low stocked but still very worth fishing 👍 Cheers, Steve
