Duo-Lite
Floodwater Barbel
This is the first barbel rod to be specifically designed for floodwater
fishing. The very unique blank will cope with just about every situation you
are likely to encounter during times of flood on both large and small
rivers. It also doubles up as a perfect hit and hold rod for snag fishing
where heavy lines and strong hooks are needed.
It is supplied with both a solid and a push in quiver tip rated at 2 Ύ lb.
The interchangeable tips are rated at 4 and 6 oz for the softer glass
versions and 5 and 7 oz for the stiffer carbon versions.
The Floodwater
Barbel has stacks of hidden power allowing you to easily use massive feeders
and heavy leger weights up to about 6 oz. Some of the biggest barbel have
been caught in these tricky floodwater conditions but to be successful it is
imperative that you have the right rod for the job. Although there is
an amazing amount of power to cope with big leads and feeders the tips are
surprisingly forgiving and actually act as a built in shock absorber so that
you dont straighten or pull some of the smaller hooks.
Whilst most floodwater fishing is conducted downstream which is perfect
for the solid tip the quiver tip really comes into its own when you are
fishing upstream. The selection of interchangeable tips allow you to use
just the right power to tension against the rig without dislodging it. These
tips also absorb fluctuating currents and cushion much of the debris that is
being brought down on the rising river.
So whether you are fishing in snags with heavy tackle or with huge leads
in heavy water conditions the Barbel Floodwater will allow you to easily
extract those big doubles from their hidey holes.
