Nielsen rod
Nielsen rod
I bought a Nielsen rod two seasons ago from "Tacklediscounts" on Ebay.
9' 6wt.. to say i am pleased with it would be be an understatement..it's a cracker. Under £30.00.
Being a tad bored the other day, i bid on another Neilsen rod, not the same model, a slightly cheaper rod....
I won the thing. It arrived the other day. First impressions were......."I like it"
finish is v good, not as good as my other Neilsen, but good. A 9' 7-8wt, dark green blank with lighter green whipping and a short fighting butt, very nice livery.
I tried it on grass last evening....Boy does it cast, a nice middle to tip going a tad more to tip than middle, powerful
.The rings don't look as though will last, but time will tell, I love the blank and would certainly re-ring when needed.
Obviously these are only first impressions, the true test comes with using it on fish, this i look forward to doing...
Oh, the price. .......£32.50 I have bought another already
but a 6/7.. how much for my second ??................. £24.00
Both come with good quality tubes and both are 4 piece with no flat spots.
Well worth a look while stocks last.
Si.......
