Cheers gents

Managed to have a look at the diawa harrier and MAP concept today. Not inpressed by the harrier as it seems very sloppy, but the MAP was quite good. Does anyone know anything about the Normark or anyone who has one to give their opinion?

Hi

I'm looking to purchase a bolognese rod for fishing the trent derwent and don and am looking for advice from those in the know as to which one to plump for. Looking at the fishermans friend advert in this weeks angling times i've found the following very attractive deals.

Abu ambassador elite match power 18ft - £109 rrp £189

Browning Syntec 18/20ft - £109 rrp £179

Maver abyss match 20ft - £119 rrp £170

Mitchell supreme 6m bolo - £79 rrp £209

Map concept match 18/20ft - £99 rrp £170

Normark crusader 15/20ft - £137 rrp £275

Diawa harrier 20ft - £99 rrp £199

 

On paper it looks like the Normark is a lot of rod for the money, however I've got the John Wlson Avon quiver and with the 2ft extension it becomes very noticibly tip heavy and unbalanced.

 

Views from the owners of any of the above rods much appreciated.

 

Cheers

 

Steve

Just wondering which one you decided on and if you are still fishing with it.

Hi Glenric and welcome to Anglers' Net. This topic started in 2004 and the topic starter hasn't been around for a few years now. If you are interested in this style rod, open a new topic and I imagine you will get some decent advice on what to look for and possibly some specific rods you might like.

 

I'm going to close this oldie now.
