Dont worry mate, I know that they sell a dedicated rod bag for their 10ft rods because they have longer handles

I have a pair of the 10ft 3lb and I just don't like them.
What's the standard handle length for a 10fter? I'll measure the handle if you like

If I want a short rod I tend to take the korum opportunist I bought my son, much nicer rod to use and much more feel through the blank

Am I correct in thinking that they have longer handles compared to the usual 10ft rods?

Looking at vids and pics I would suggest 40's.
But I've been wrong before....

Can anyone confirm if these are rung with 40mm or 50mm butt rings?

Eric's are doing these rods very cheap this weekend. Think it is £36 for the 10ft and £45 for the 12ft.
Are these rung with 40mm ringing?

I had a quick look and waggle of these the other day as I was looking for some 10ft beefy cheap rods for my river fishing. I must say, for the money, they seem pretty decent, and they have a line clip which a lot of others in this price bracket don’t. I could get another 9ft Harrison at £250 and or get 3 of those Avids for less than £150 and it doesn’t really matter too much if they get knackered/pinched/broken. Yea, they won’t be as “good” as a top class rod but they’ll do a job where there’s loads of overhanging trees and fishing in the edge. 10% off this weekend at a lot of places so a bit of a bargain I reckon. They’re also 3k weave along three whole blank if I recall correctly so they look rather nice compared to some of the competitors offerings which mainly only have 3k at the butt section.
Other ones worth a look at are Wychwood and Sonik.

Fox Warriors are good rods for around that price range, think they are £60-£70 each.

Hi

Looking for opinions/reviews on these rods.

I'm after 12ft 3lb and at £55 these look good on paper.

Any other suggestions with a similar price are welcome.

Thanks
