Designed by Trefor this 10ft 6 inch bespoke Chub rod of 1.6lb test curve comes with a removable carbon quiver tip and over-fit top ring, and when fitted extends the rod to 11 ft 6″ total length. Made by Harrison Advanced rods in Liverpool to a very high standard in the familiar green livery of Lone Angler. The rod comes complete with a high quality cloth bag with special provision for the tip. Short quality cork handle, hook keeper, the familiar Fuji screw winch reel fitting and properly sized and spaced rings completes the package.
“ Steve Harrison and his team had produced a beautiful rod with their usual immaculate finish to the Lone Angler specification. 10ft 6ins blank, which incorporates an overfit end ring with the additional option of a 12inch 2ozs overfit carbon quiver tip. Test curve 1lb 6ozs short cork handle and the sweetest through action without a trace of a flatspot from butt to tip. Matched to a small fixed spool reel, in my case an ABU 54, this rod wants you to hold it to feel its sensitivity, it desires to respond to a subtle induced movement of your leger, which will surely provoke a chub to engulf your delicately presented bread crust or cheese paste offering.
This is a fishing rod, it wants you to fish not plonk it on a rod rest and gaze endlessly at a motionless rod tip. Toss your terminal tackle upstream, work the bait down the glide to settle on the crease where the flow diverts across to the far bank. A classic chub swim on any river you care to name.”
