going to treat myself to a new feeder rod 9 11foot for commercials any advice chaps~think ~think

[TF_craigm]

Maver Carbide 9/11′ is a nice rod and they can be bought new for around £69.00 on ebay, they were £129 when they first came out.

Alright Big Fella, Shimano Beastmaster 9/11 think there going for around £100 on Ebay.

whens the new shimano out

[TF_tony csas]

which models ax or the bx whats the difference chaps~think ~think

[Average-AlParticipant]

I know the BX only comes with two tip sections where the AX has 3, other than that I don’t know, Carp Magic may be able assist further if he sees the post?
Billy Clarks of Sheffield has a good web page and are a Shimano dealer. I think they still have the AX.

Forgot to mention you can also get a butt for about £35 which means you can have the rod set up at both lengths – nice

Tony, ave a look at the new preston innovations 9ft commercial mini f1 and the 9ft preston competition feeder too, both very nice, i think they were 130 and 80 respectively but my mate bought a garbolino 9ft rocket picker and drennan series 7 reel for £55! For the money, the rod is spot on too, soft in top half but with a fair bit of back bone if you hook a bonus lump.~clap

[TF_shep2]

is that the new preston f1 rod “specifically designed for shy biting f1s” yeah right every f1 ive ever had on the tip dragged the bloody lot in ~sick

New Beastmaster 9/11ft out now tackle 2u,have them in stock,01924835443

How do Tony, have a word with Dave McD he’s just got the Shimano – heard they ain’t too good through 5 inches of ice though like we’ve still got on our place….

[TF_freddy the frog]

~clap airity 10/11 with tangle free eyes,lol

[TF_nofish]

another vote for the shimano 9/11foot. a seriously good rod for the money

[TF_macca63]

Tony, just got the new 9/11 Beastmaster from Ted Carters but not had chance to use it yet, hopefully will be thawed for weekend

[TF_Tickle]

The new beastmaster commercial BX 9/11 is in some shops now we have them in.

I’d also look at the new Speedmaster commercial 9/11ft as another choice of rod if you were looking to spend a bit more.

[TF_scarf]

Don’t rule out the Fox FX Dual 10/11ft. I know it’s not the 9/11ft you mention but it works brilliantly at both lengths without having to be broken down to change lengths. I love mine.

Heard this before, isn’t the butt just the cork? If so, do you get 2 middle sections?

[TF_Tickle]

yes two middle sections, one for the 9ft and one for 11ft.

[TF_redarmy]

After buying my 5 year old a cheepy garbolino rocket rod I would now find it hard to justify buying much else, not got quite the cachet of a carbotec but them carp still cant read.
You could buy the 2 picker rods and the 2 feeder rods for around the price of the shimano 9/11. Nothing wrong at all with the shimano, in fact the last three feeder rods I bought for myself were made by them.

[TF_hempseed]

Im in the market for one of the beastmaster rods, went to my local tackle shop and they never had one for me to play with, but they had one of those garbo rocket rods, and they feel great!!! didn’t buy one because was so cheap!!!!! but they do feel good, must have another look i thinks! ~think
