Preston Innovations 11’ 6” feeder Asaki blank 3 top section model

[Julian Marshall]

Very useful as a chub rod, probably not pokey enough for serious barbel fishing.
Lovely action & the lighter`2` & `3` tips are ideal for stillwater - seems to be a favourite with bream anglers & the rod will handle carp up to doubles Ok in open water.

A review from when the rods were released: https://www.fishingmagic.com/preston-innovations-carbonactive-12-6-feeder-rod/

I’ve used the `4` top on the Ure for chub in a medium flow & it shows finicky bites well.

In good overall condition – a few small nicks in the varnish on the lower section. All rings & whippings perfect on all sections. A few fine marks on male spigot of handle. Cork is excellent. Lower duplon section has a `bruise` to surface.

Unfortunately I don’t have the correct bag - small chance it will turn up!
Difficult to find a sensible price for posting with insurance so collection only from Ripon please – few minutes from the A1 J50/A61.

£65

Sorry Julian, but I think you've priced that way too low. I sold the 10' twin tip bomb rod last year for £125. The original Preston Asaki (sp) are fetching quite a lot of money at the moment. £65 is an absolute steal.

Hello & thanks for the advice - I do have a response from someone local at the advertised price so I might need to honour it - am having a bit of a clear out. I'm a bit out of touch with prices for tackle & I don't want to use Ebay if possible. Thanks again, Julian

Superb rod, like all of the Preston rods built on Asaki blanks

Agreed

Thanks a lot for the helpful comments but it's probably gone - will update Friday evening. Cheers, Julian
