Our aim with the Helical Specialist rod was to provide anglers with a versatile all-round tool capable to suit different conditions and species. We have opted for a test curve of 1.75lb when using the Avon top section which suits both summer and winter conditions in all but the heaviest of flows when targeting Barbel or Chub, or as a Tench or Bream feeder rod when fishing still waters.

We have been working for some time on utlising the hollow feeder quiver tips for heavier specialist rods aimed at Barbel and Chub. Traditionally specimen river anglers use Avon tip sections in all but the smallest streams and rivers or the lightest currents.
