Re: tench rods?

I use the standard 1.25tc section of my JW Avon rod for feeder fishing for bream aswell, it allows you to cast further and slightly heavier feeders than the Quiver tip section and cope with strong flow. but its good for tench and carp to 10/12lb too on the float.

Re: tench rods?

Having only caught around 20 Tench up to 7lb, and all whilst fishing for Carp, I may be showing my ignorance here. But why do you need any more than 1.75 TC for Tench?
I would have thought that would have taken the sport out of it. I can understand if you are using a 2 or 2.25lb for all round fishing with Carp and Barbel up to 20lb, but for Tench that are normally less than 7lb, seems OTT.
