The new Drennan Acolyte Plus rods are stepped-up versions of the existing Acolyte Ultra rods, and designed to Alan Scotthorne's exacting requirements. Both still feature super-slim blanks but pack extra strength to punch out larger floats and control quality fish like carp, tench and chub easier. They are perfectly matched with reel lines from 4lb to 6lb+ and hooklengths from 3lb to 5lb. A forgiving tip section combined with a progressive middle helps to absorb every lunge while keeping hook pulls to an absolute minimum. Weighing on average just 150g and 156g respectively, these rods are a joy to fish with all day! Designed in conjunction with five-time World Champion, Alan Scotthorne Slightly stepped-up versions of the already popular Acolyte Ultra rods Still exceptionally slim! Still amazingly lightweight! Available in 13ft and 14ft versions Traditional 3-piece construction Full Fuji SiC guides throughout Full cork handle with Fuji DPS reel seat Hook retaining ring Great for punching out larger wagglers, sliders and stick floats on natural waters Great for pellet wagglers and loaded missile-style wagglers on commercials Crisp action picks up line extremely well on the strike Designed for handling fish of all sizes but with extra backbone to deal with bonus carp, chub, tench, etc Impressive parabolic action ensures these rods will still cushion lighter hooklengths
