Browning King Feeder rods.

Where do you get to see see these rods, are they still current. Should I buy Tricast instead, Ropa where are you when I need you????~think

[TF_Tickle]

There is a current range of Browning King Feeder rods available, they are in the 2011 catalogue but I think you may struggle to find them as I can’t see a massive demand for them being 13ft, 14ft and 15ft.

Squatt, I`ve P.M`D you mate.

Cheers for the PM, if the reps are like hens teeth I suppose the rods are like unicorns po*. Shame as I’ve been down the Tricast route, great rods but tips are only suited to rivers poor on stillwaters. Maybe it’s me but I can’t find a powerhorse with the right tips imo. Will hand on ropa in case you bring good news.

have you looked at the preston dutch master range ?
or what about the shimano 14ft aerocast that some of the top bream anglers use for long range work

[TF_Enda]

I have two of them, the All Seasons versions, got them as the came out a couple of years back, sold them and ended up buying another 2.
They are not really distance rods, 80m max is about as much as I can do with them.
They are nice and soft, I have broke a couple of tips recently and that is a very rare thing for me to do, I ordered spares ages ago and am still waiting.
They have been updated with different finish and fittings.
There are better rods out there now.

Edna cheers, what would you suggest for a 80m+ chuck on stillwaters for Bream/Roach. Is the 14ft Aerocast any good?

[TF_ropa]

Squatt, check yer P.M`S mate, The range was re-vamped last year, so the All Seasons rods you have were the originals. They wern`t made for long casting, but they were possibly the best bream rods I`ve had hold off! Unfortunately Browning don`t make he originals anymore or have any left in stock!! So if you fancy selling them, there`s plenty of lads I know who would buy them off you. The new All Seasons isn`t as forgiving as the originals as it was built for casting. Still a good rod for medium to long range though.

I think you should pm CATHAL.

I think Greys/Hardy are bringing out something soon.

I use a Drennan Drx 13ft 10 with a glass tip.
Just got a Garbo Distance Feeder off another site on friday so I will give it a chuck soon.

Rod blank is nice but I bet it is another rod frm China though.

[TF_ropa]

Edna , what tips you waiting for??? Strange they havnt been sent as they are always in stock. Have you ordered them through a shop???

[TF_scizzers]

dunno the hardys 13 extreme is made in china all so the tips are jap i think well worth the money though excellent

[TF_squatt]
