Commercial quivertip recommendation


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, looking to get my eldest a quiver tip, my first proper rod was a John Wilson Avon rod which served me well for years, I'm looking for a maybe 8/10' quiver that can handle carp and silver for my boy , any pointers?

I like the 9' ones short soft action, I'm thinking Shimano diawa Preston I might see what they got in local tackle shop ? I got some nice barbel rods when the time comes but he's a fair bit to learn yet , cheers for that mate.

I’d be tempted by one of the multi tip rods mate .Either a through or top action .Tips interchangeable according to target species .Better to er on bigger side with carp .Seen a few tip rods snap off on the  bite with carp of 15 plus ..They never learn on Tockenham lake targeting bream on the method feeder with corn .Sooner or later a carp will take it and wallop,lol.

Never had a tip break on the bite, i have landed carp well over 20lb on a 1 1/2 oz tip and 6lb line with a 4lb hook length. If you use a QD reel like the TDR and have the drag backed off even the most vicious bite is not a problem, another tip is to leave your front rod rest loose so it can spin on the take. I have bust tips in strong winds whilst using braid with tip wrap and when the line gets covered in willow fluff but never on a take.

Most lads clip up when bream fishing mate .Most use braid here now .Either the line has to give or the rod tip .Seen it 3 times this season .

Even if you clip up, which i do, you usually get a few turns on the reel whilst sinking the line.
