Quiver tips weight?

[tigger]

I used to buy them and swap them over, infact I used to buy the daiwa tips to use on the drennan rods as the daiwa tips looked much better quality guides etc. As I said i've no idea about the tips they've been making for the last 5 or 6yrs.

I'd check what Drennan themselves have to say on their aftermarket tip compatibility before parting with any cash.

I have seen some "universal tips" on eBay, apparently they come bigger than most rods and one has to sand them down with a bit of wet and dry. Now how good they are I don't know, but that could be worth looking into as some cheapish backups.

Here they are: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Red-Universal-Push-Quiver-Tip/dp/B006W7TXYO

I tel you what all jokes to one side that certainly ain't a bad idea,

Providing the tips are carefully sanded and fit the tip sections properly there's no reason why they shouldn't work and be ok, try to match the tip sizes ( ounces) to the size of the tips that originally came supplied with the rods in question :thumbs:

Guess it wouldn't hurt to get in touch with either company's customer service departments. Am rather tempted to try the tips I just linked though, if they are any good, a tenner for tips is a bargain.

Aye, honestly, if they do push me past temptation, I will certainly update you all on what I think of them.
