As you will be fishing the Ribble try a shakespeare Mach 1 travel match a useful 13 footer that is quite capable of stopping a barbel I know because I use one from time to time and being a five piece you can keep it in the car boot away from the prying eyes of scrotes!

This one may be worth a stab...

I did not get on with the Suveran travel match rod had several flat or dead spots on it, something I have often found on vary length fishing rods

Hello all,

 

Can anyone recommend a good 13 foot rod for trotting on the river? There's so damn many It's impossible to sort between them. Does anybody have any experience of using a rod that they really enjoyed and found to be light and crisp in action? I should also mention that it needs to be a reasonable price.

 

Thanks

 

Rik

 

Most carp waggler rods will be OK if it has a line rating of upto 6lb. Great for chub, a bit light for barbel and a bit heavy for roach and dace, but ive had fun catching them all on one.

I don't know this rod, but this kind of thing should be Ok.

 

I used a silstar taktiq for trotting on the ribble, which i would guess is the same rod as a Eurostar taktic and had some great times with it.

Yeah, but that's because you've got one of the best rods known to man

 

And considering how good they are there not really expensive !

Great rods Ian and if you can spare the dosh i would say get one, but if your on a budget watercraft and rivercraft will always come first for me. Nice gear don't always catch you more fish.
