I would like to get some 11' rods but don't seem to be able to find any in that length - don't want to go down the custom route as won't be used that often so can anybody suggest any brands that offer 11' rods about 2.5-2.75lb that are preferably <£100 each.

Why 11foot mate? If they arent going to be used that often, surely you could make do with 12s or 10s?

Just fancy a pair of 11' rods for day sessions - probably just harking back to how I started carping as I did many years with 11' rods, trying to turn the clock back perhaps
Got some Mitchell 410's somewhere too, that could be fun to use again.

Fair enough. I know tackle box do 11 foot specialist and barbel rods. The darenth valley ones i think. May be worth a look see if they do carp rods

I only use 11' rods. Like you, it goes back to my youth where I was brought up using shorter rods/leger rods etc.
11 footers are not easy to find, but they are out there if you look. I'm currently using FreeSpirit TS's but Harrison also do the Baby Ballista's, although these are a bit over your price range.
I've used these before, have passed them on to my daughter now I've got the FreeSpirits. Bosh..........

Chub used to do a small water 11ft 2.25 rod. You might find a second hand set.
I have a pair of old Mk1 Daiwa powermesh in 11ft 2.25tc, and they're probably my favourite rods to use, when the situation allows.
