Shame they don't show us how it packs up.

I’ve just bought the Drennan Specialist Umbrella and it’s seems to be a good bit of kit.

How narrow does it roll up Neil?

A curious feature. Why would one want to secure their rods to the brolley?

Quite handy Rich if you want to prop the rod up against the brolly while your sat under brolly baiting the hook or attaching a rig.

Rolls up just like any standard 50” umbrella

Looks really good Neil the 44 appeals to me for both size and weight.
Does it come with the storm pole adapters

They come on lots of brolleys and shelters now Rich so I guess they get used . Personally I’ve never needed them as I always drop the rod on the rest when seeing to the business end
Maybe after landing a fish it could be convenient to lean the rod up high against the brolley while you sort it out

 

[Richard Parsons]

Joe and Rich - yes, I get it now. Didn't understand, initially, what was meant.

 

[Gerry Giles]

I cant see this being any better or as good as the Fox specialist brolly

or am I missing something ?

Did you have visions of noddy's getting their brollies and rods dragged in?!

 

[Jon Frisby]

Shame there's no Side panel or flat back.

Yes just attach your bank sticks to them.

I think the lack of sides is a blessing
Pegging sides down in tight or overgrown swims is a pain in the arse which is why the fox never appealed to me.
The only negative with my Korum is the inability to remove the center pole. This new drennan appears to have all the answers for the light travel guy who likes to pack a brolly

You won't be surprised to know Joe that, yes, I did

Yeah they look the nuts! Nice one Drennan!

Hi all
I've just brought a Diawa 50" Brolly for £45 from AD, it came with steel pole, which I unscrewed, and replaced it with an aluminium pole. It has a good quality waterproof fabric cover with taped seams and weighs 5 lb 3oz / 2.35kg which is lighter than the korum graphite or the Drennan Brolly and is soo much cheaper!!!
Regards Wayne

Well going to eat my words as today I just SOLD my beloved Fox specialist brolly !!

the reason is due to my now permanent health problems it was hurting my back to collapse it SOOOOOO I am thinking of replacing it with this Drennan just hoping it has a normal button release that I can probably manage ok

any owners care to comment please
