I am searching for a 17ft float rod suitable for tench fishing on my local estate lake.
Ideally I would like it to meet the following requirements.
1) Suitable for 6lb+ mainline.
2) Full cork handle
3) Under £300
4) Capable of casting floats taking 8ssg+
5) Screw down reel seat. (No Tricast)
Does such a rod currently exist, or should I be looking second hand.
I've looked at the Daiwa Connoisseur Pro but don't like the dupion handle, and also the obvious from Drennan but I'm not sure it's up to it.
What say you?
