Just a little completely honest review on what is imo based on the last 8 months use, the absolute best 1 man brolley your money will buy.
bold statement I know but don’t worry I’m gonna back it up with reasons.
firstly it’s an extremely small brolley, 45”tops. When I say 1 man I mean it. Not 1 man and a weeks worth of shit.
you a bag and a bit of bait is about all it’s good for keeping under cover. So I’m not even gonna bother to compare it to these ovel peg outs because it ain’t that type of tool. It’s a spike in the floor type thing made a hell of a lot better still with storm poles when needed.
it’s an 8 spoke 1250mm spokes with a peaked front so you don’t get water pooling up on top
The very rear spoke is around 200mm shorter than the rest so you can have the back sitting flat on the floor which takes 3 pegs.
No daft wings to peg out and no bits or flaps or anything like that, it’s a brolley that you can literally squeeze into the tightest of swims because it doesn’t need pegging out all round. 1 peg in the back does it spot on for me.
I love the carbon rods. They are proper thick and strong at 7mm each. They ain’t some poxy 4mm chrome coated steel.
twist two position pole which I normally don’t rate but because it takes a couple of pegs it’s not an issue as it can’t spin on that thread.
Now I’ve crammed this thing into some interesting places, used it in conjunction with 38” storm poles in the middle of an absolute howler and carried its 2.5kg weight a fair few miles along the great Ouse and I absolutely love it.
I briefly saw the fox 45” super brolley afew weeks back and that looks really good
I like the fox high mechanism better but with flappy side wings and an odd shape to pack away and it’s a bigger 45” (Christ knows who measures these things) I’d chose the Korum graphite over the fox for the fishing I do.
any way. Just a very positive review for Korum on this one. They nailed it.
