Barbel are part and parcel of most all-round specialist anglers’ agenda. Some of the biggest known Barbel dwell in narrow rivers where casting heavy weights and countering strong flows are not an issue.
It’s a common mistake to fish with too powerful a rod which lacks the correct playing action. With cork/Duplon grip and Shimano reel seat, the 1½lb test curve Purist Barbel Classic is ideal for such situations, providing two length options plus quivertip and Avon top sections.

This 11ft two-piece float rod is an absolute joy to use, weighing just 6 ounces and feeling even lighter thanks to the perfect balance, it can be held all day without becoming cumbersome. By using a combination of high-grade low-resin carbons we have produced a rod with a lightning fast action, making bites much easier to hit, yet which retains an action that bends right through the blank, eliminating hook-pulls. Designed for ultra-accurate casting at short to medium range, this is the ideal rod for fishing tight to islands with a small waggler for carp, fishing a dumpy waggler up in the water for roach, or trotting a stick float for fast biting dace.

Line Rating: 3-6lb Description: 2 Piece

Quite possibly our favourite rod in the whole Precision range! At 13ft with a progressive power action this rod is perfect for the All-rounder. In testing we used it on our local River Severn for catching chub and barbel on the balsa float, had some huge bags of carp and tench from our local pools on it and loved using it for waggler fishing for specimen roach. In short, if you are looking for a float rod that you can take anywhere and do almost anything, then this is the rod for you. We normally leave this rod in the car for the odd snatched session when time permits. The four-piece construction meaning it can be hidden easily in the boot, or simply split into two and left tackled up.

Line Rating: 3-8lb Description: 4 Piece

Specifically developed to cover the majority of feeder and ledgering on stillwaters and smaller rivers, the two-tips of the Multi-Feeder give a multitude of options, fit the Quiver tip for maximum bite detection when feeder fishing, switching to the 1.5lb hollow tip when using bigger feeders and leads in conjunction with a bite alarm. The action of the Multi-feeder is quite distinct from that found on our Specialist rods. The Multi-Feeder is best described as having a semi-fast action, with reserves of power in the butt and forgiving tips. This combination gives fantastic casting performance, yet allows the use of light hook lengths and small hooks, ideal for finicky carp and bream. Over recent seasons we have increasingly used Multi-feeder rods fitted with the 1.5lb tip for Bagging Waggler, Floating Method Feeder and Surface fishing for carp. The stiff action in the butt gives great casting accuracy, whilst the soft, forgiving tip absorbs the lunges of carp hooked close to the surface.

This is a delightful all round barbel rod to cover most of your leger and feeder work on both small and medium sized rivers. It is supplied with both a solid and push in quiver tip rated at 1 1/2 lb. The Barbel Duo-Lite has been designed to fish with feeders and legerweights up to 3 oz in weight and hook links as low as 4 lb breaking strains. Both tips are forgiving allowing you to use hooks down to about size 16 without fear of straightening or pulling. This is the perfect rod for pellet, boilie, particle and maggot work on rivers like the Avon, Stour, Kennet, Teme and even the Upper Severn.

The action is such that there is loads of hidden power to keep big fish under control whilst at the same time you have the assurance that you don’t get smashed on small hooks and light links. The solid tip is just perfect for the traditional downstream work whilst the quiver tip section and its interchangeable tips are ideal for detecting upstream dropbacks as well as absorbing fluctuating currents and debris to ensure that the rig isn’t dislodged.

Although this rod was originally designed with barbel in mind it is also ideally suited for stillwater long range feeder work when targeting species like tench and bream.
