Preston Ignition 10ft Carp Feeder

Product Information

Blank: The hollow carbon fibre tube that the rod is made from, attached to which are the guides and handle. There’s no doubt that this rod is an excellent feeder but it wouldn’t be our first recommendation to new anglers. Its a bit more pricey than some of the other rods and although it compensates through its incredible technology and features, its something that we feel a lot of anglers may not use. For budget rods they really are the business. They feel light to hold (to me anyway) have a good action and will bend all the way through when it comes to it (which you can see from the Preston adverts for them) and really power up when the bigger boys try to charge off. The perfect all-round commercial feeder rod. Suitable for casting method feeders up to around 40m. progressive action which is perfect for tamig match sized carp. The 10-footer is preferable for tight swims at a shorter range because it is more accurate and the extended 11ft version is better distance casting. Middy is literally giving two rods inside of one! Honestly if casting if the main priority for you, this is definitely one to for. Quality

Waggler rods, however, are a little different, as the short and powerful blanks suited to the pellet waggler simply won’t do for the smaller banded pellet and maggot hookbaits we use for F1s in the cooler months. Quiver tip: The very top (often brightly coloured) section of a feeder rod, used to identify bites, which bends and 'quivers' when a fish moves off with the bait. Like the test curve of a rod, quiver tips are often rated in test curves measured in ounces.If you're an angler, you know that no two models of coarse fishing rods perform precisely the same. Each one will have its unique advantages and disadvantages that make it more or less suitable for specific needs or users. So how do you decide which feeder fishing rod is the right one worth your hard-earned money? Both the 10ft and 11ft versions deliver those shorter casts when bream, roach and skimmers are the target. Fish playing action: A way of describing how good a rod performs when reeling in a fish. A rod with a good fish-playing action will provide plenty of cushion to a thrashing fish, preventing hook pulls (lost fish) and line breakages. When it comes to choosing a medium feeder rod, there are a few things to consider. Fish won't usually hook themselves with a traditional feeder set-up, so you'll need to watch the tip to spot and hit bites. A 1oz rated tip is great for calm conditions, while 2oz-3oz might be used in wind, tow, or on a river. The more tips the rod comes with, the more versatile it'll be. The taper of the tips is important too. Soft tips which bend right through offer little resistance to shy-biting fish, but faster taper tips show up tiny tentative bites better and allow you to cast harder and further.

Coupled with a quality reel and the Ignition has no problem casting to the tight margins of an island or just handing a few meters ahead, it also comes in two pellet waggler versions which are equally as impressive. Overall, its well-built, well-equipped, and really versatile which is why it makes it to the top of our list. Quality On that day I chose to use the two-piece 9ft model, one of a series of six that also includes the 12ft two-piece Method Feeder rod that’s on live test duty this time around.

Fly

A soft, seamless through action prevents hook pulls that can lose you a match, yet the rods double up as the perfect winter commercial fishery tools for F1s and carp on maggot feeder and straight lead tactics.
