Rods

I have seen Bob's rods, also Mark Tunley's, Ian Tuckers, Dave Lumbs and my Fav Bruce Ashby. TBH they all Build/make class rods and the defining feature i have seen is the quality of cork being used, some are ok and have a fair amount of filler, and some use a higher grade of cork IMO. One very good thing that Bob does; is the isoblobs a must for any night angler, then again you can always do it your self.

Hello I purchased a 1.75 Torrix built by Ian Tucker, a beautiful piece of kit with adapted Cork Handle, maroon and gold whipping and the top two eye section painted High Viz white.
Very sensitive at detecting bites and lots of power when needed. Had 10 on it this season so far including a fast running double in a weir. Highly reccommended!!
