4lb Maxima has never let me down in 20 odd years - if they are a little line shy drop down to 3lb but make sure ypou tackle is well balanced as a nice 4lb male will let you know about it on 3lb anything !!!!!

Darren, if you're float-fishing it is gonna be close in. Used mono for the stretch. My habit is 5 or 6 lb Maxima mainline with a lighter hooklength which is one of the pre-stretched new fangled types.
For more fun, use a 'pin... For even more fun, use a soft rod. I have a glass rod made by Terry Eustace in the early 80s - called the Tench Special or something like that. It's 12 foot and has an all-through action and a test curve of 8 ozs! The handle bends! Persevere. A tench caught on the float is something special. Good Luck Mate - MAKE IT HAPPEN! Drew |

Hi
 I would opt for either sensor and maxima for the biggies andthe drennan super specialist for slightly more delicate work. With respect....

Oh yes, good one Joe. Sensor too. Cracking line and good value. I have used it a lot for feeder work and it's a reliable line.

reflo powerline is a mono that the matchemen use.... but will opt out of the fireline.
fancyed a pin for xmas but got 3 terry hearn rods instead.... they might come onto play if my babel rods cant handle the feeders.... on the look out for a specimen float 13fter, been lookin at the fox specimen float, looks ok, and will do me on the rivers in summer too. |
