Drennan AS1 Carp & F1s Pole Rigs
Designed in conjunction with Alan Scotthorne, these readymade pole rigs have been more than a year in development and individually hand tied in our own factories, so the quality is second to none!
They have been constructed to Alan Scotthorne's precise specifications, right down to the shotting patterns. Each rig comes on a specially printed pole winder and is tied using Supplex line in appropriate diameters. They are completed with a 15cm (6in) hooklength and corresponding Drennan hook.
Four styles are available incorporating the latest AS pole floats: AS1 (F1 & Carp), AS2 (Big Carp), AS3 (Silverfish & F1) and AS4 (Margin Carp). Each rig is 3.5 metres long apart from the Margin Carp, which is 2.5 metres. These lengths are perfect for the vast majority of commercial fisheries and can be easily trimmed down if necessary for shallower venues.
