11ft 1.25lb quiver rod.

[Neil Blood]

Any recommendations on an 11ft 1.25lb TC quiver or Avon/quiver rod for small river Chubbing?

Ive used an original Drennan SS Duo 12ft 1.25lb for years, but want something a bit shorter. I’ve had a waggle of latest Drennan 11ft Duo 1.25lb, but it didn’t feel great in the hand. The rod will be fished mostly as a quiver rod.

when I came back into angling in 2017 after a very long lay off. I needed the same. I looked at quite a few, including the Drennan rods. In the end I bought a pair of John Wilson Avon Quiver Deluxe rods. over the last three winters I've used them to catch Hants Avon chub to 7.3 and Dorset Stour chub to 7.11, I'm really pleased with them and they are brilliant value at under £45!!! (see below)

Hi Neil , ask Kev at angling w/shop .

Unfortunately he’s in the process of retiring Tom, no new orders being taken. Hopefully the Barbel rods he made me, will last a good few years yet.

If your pockets are deep enough I’d go down this route and get exactly as you want

New chub rod

Just thought I’d share I’ve been down to see mr Tunley today to collect my order. I love a bit of chub fishing especially in winter and it’s been long over due that I customized a rod to suit my requirements exactly for chub ledgering methods. Float is sorted as the compact Acolyte is spot on...

Have a look at the Drennan Acolyte range.

Have a look at the Drennan Acolyte range.

I've already got an Acolyte Ultra 11ft feeder rod for Perch fishing (one of 3 Acolytes that I own), problem with the Acolytes is they are a bit delicate and all mine are carried in a hard tube!

There are very few rods, specifically aimed at what I'm looking for. It appears the only readily available rods are the Drennan Duo and Darent Valley options?
