Going to pick up a very nice Drennan Super Specialist Duo 12ft, 1.5lb tc in mint condition for the bargain price of £50 on Friday, which I'm going to be using for my chub fishing from now on as I can bolt rig with it and quiver tip and suits my style of fishing exactly.
Didn't want a 1.75lb tc (too powerful) or the 1.25 tc (not enough power) and I needed the rod to have a bit of backbone to stop a big chub from reaching cover in hit & hold situations and cast 2-3oz of lead while also being able to link ledger with it so this seems like the perfect compromise.
Anyone got any thoughts on these rods? Have never used a Drennan rod in my life (probably the only person on this forum not to use one!). I have been told that its a perfect big chub rod.
