MAVER

 Maver Black Ice Float Rods

The Black Ice Competition range has been designed specifically with the modern competition angler in mind. The new ‘Black Ice’ finish combined with the perfect parabolic action makes these rods something very special.

The sublime balance and incredible tip speed makes this rod a delight to use for both stick and waggler fishing on rivers as well as tackling carp on commercials.

The  Black Ice Match float rods are available in a 12ft and 13ft configurations.

Maver Black Ice Multi tip Feeder Rods

A range of high quality multi-tip rods designed specifically for the modern commercial angler. Featuring the stunning Black Ice finish combined with the perfect parabolic action. Available in three rod lengths, covering all aspects of modern day feeder fishing, each rod is supplied with three carefully graded quiver tips.

The 11ft 6” model is as good as it gets for short range commercial work. The forgiving action will absorb last minute lunges at the net, reducing hook-pulls. The 12ft model is the ideal length for all general feeder fishing. The forgiving action lends itself to bream and skimmer fishing while the hidden power will tame today’s commercial carp.

When distance casting is required to reach the most wary of fish, the 13ft will provide that extra power to punch the feeder to the horizon. Also ideal for all River work.

 

 

PRESTON COMMERCIAL ROD RANGE 2008

The CarbonActive C Series has been designed with  commercial fisheries in mind. Featuring the non-lock actions, which have become synonymous with CarbonActive, high quality guides and ‘soft-touch’ reel seats combined with cork/duplon
handles, the C series is a new range of rods that enhance the CarbonActive reputation.

C SERIES 11FT FEEDER
A through actioned medium feeder rod suitable for short to medium range feeder fishing. The 11ft C Series feeder has a non-lock blank which absorbs the lunges of large fish at the net. This reduces hook pulls and enables you
to maintain control at all times. Supplied with Three glass quivertips, to cope with different levels of tow and sizes of feeders, the 11ft C Series is also capable of casting smaller method feeders. A screw lock reel seat and high quality cork/duplon handle combine with the high gloss blank and lined guides to make a top class feeder rod suitable for a wide range of
situations. Line rating 3lb - 6lb.

C SERIES 12FT FEEDER
With its extra length and increased power, the 12ft C Series Feeder rod is suitable for medium to long-range fishing with loaded feeders up to 3oz, whilst still retaining the non-lock CarbonActive action ideal for modern match carp. The spacing of the lined guides has been carefully thought out to give optimum casting distance and a smooth curve once a fish is
hooked, yet the high quality lightweight guides do not add any unnecessary weight to the blank. The slim high gloss blank has a cork/ duplon handle that is fitted with a soft-touch quality reel seat that locks the reel to the rod securely. Line rating 4lb - 8lb.

C SERIES 13FT FLOAT
Manufactured from high modulus carbon, he 13ft C Series Float combines a through actioned non-lock blank with low down  power to tame the increasingly large carp encountered in modern commercial
fisheries. Suitable for use with lines up to 8lb and floats up to 16grams, it’s capable of casting all but the largest splasher wagglers. As with all CarbonActive rods, the C Series Float has a high gloss blank finished with top
quality guides and a cork/duplon handle with a screw lock reel seat. Line rating 3lb - 6lb

 

AEROCAST 13FT MATCH RODS

The Aerocast Match is the first Shimano match rod featuring the revolutionary oval blank technology. In this model the oval blank is most easily noticed when playing fish with the rod to the side (it's softest action). This offers excellent shock absorbing properties. When the rod is pointing upwards the stiffer side of the oval blank comes into play and gives more power for netting fish.Built using XT200 carbon and Biofibre, the Aerocast is fitted with top Fuji Alconite guides, a custom screw reel seat and a power cork handle.Available in three lengths, with different choices of action, one look at the gloss black blank, as you take it from the Cordura transportation tube, indicates the very best quality, but it's when you play a fish that the Aerocast really does stand head and shoulders above other rods.

RRP £179.99

KORUM 3G MULTI METHOD ROD

12ft 2 piece rod with a separate quivertip section. 1.5lb test curve makes this rod suitable for many uses from fishing for chub/barbel on the river to tench/bream and carp fishing with feeders on stillwaters. Suggested line rating 4lb - 10lb.

12ft Multifeeder £94.99
