silverfish whip

[paul k]

hi guys,
can anyone recommend a good silverfish whip for the coming winter months? it doesn't need to be more than 4 or 5 metres,really,and i'd be using it mostly for roach up to half a pound or so.
any advice appreciated as always
cheers
paul.

One of mine is a Milo Alborella ? years old 5 metres 140 grams and if you can still get one i'd go for that ,i really would never part with mine ,but as i said if you cant get holdof one they must do one similar i would think ?

[paul k]

Thanks herbert,I'll keep an eye out

Paul. That Daiwa connoisseur - x 7MTR system whip on ebay is a class bit of kit... if it goes for under £65 it will be the buy of the season

dude how much u got too spend that is a important aspect in anything u buy ide say the tourny pro x whip system if u got £500 lying about but if not shop about matey or buy a canal pole will do the same trick with the benifit of being elasticated good luck bud

[paul k]

I've been keeping an eye on that one,mate-it's on my watch list. Thanks for that ;-)

[paul k]

Cheers adrian-no more than £100 or so,mate-it won't be used loads,but handy to keep in the holdall for certain matches.

np Paul didn't know how many times was going to get used bud :F

The ones i have and use all cost about 5/10 euros each and are telescopic.Some i have are elasticated some arnt. Obviously for the money cant be beaten, shop around because even at that price some are miles beter than others also try different ones out from the same series and or make as there can be a difference in weight and action........
Mine have been to ireland and denmark baggin up .......................

Have you had a look at the Fishermans Friend ads in Matchfishing mag? They always seem to have a few for sale. Reasonable prices too. Except the new Daiwa Tourney ones which are an arm and a leg.

I have 3 daiwa harriers mate that go to 6m. and they really are the dogs. they weigh less than 200g, And can easilly land fish to 1lb. My dad once landed a 4lb thames bream on a harrier, but he was using .10mm bottom, no word of lie. I've had roach/rudd to 1lb and perch to 1lb, on 00.8m bottoms and they never let me down. They usually go for £50-60.

Someone else has recommended the conny/connys that are on ebay, but if you can get that for less than £100, you'll have yourself a bargain mate.
