Q

I am looking for a rod suitable for rolling meat tactics for barbel and chub on a small river (upper Medway) . I am considering the 1.5lb t/c model at 12 feet. Is this a good option and what reel size would you recommend? Many thanks

By Geoff Peach - Surrey - 7th Oct 2026

Hi Geoff,

That sounds fun! This Drennan rod would be fantastic for that. I would recommend the 1.5 t/c model. As for a reel, I would suggest anything between 2500 and 4000.

Regards, TackleUk
