You Bought Me a New Rod - Now Let's Test it!

I needed a new Heavy Duty Feeder Rod for a 3 day festival, but I didn't want to pay hundreds of pounds for an expensive rod which had to be shipped from the UK. Instead, I opted for a much cheaper alternative, which I bought online from a company called Ozfinchasers in Sydney.
Here's a link to the rod I bought: www.ozfinchase...
Thank you very much, to all my Viewers, Subscribers and Contributors. The money I receive from KZbin, plus the contributions you sent in, paid for the above rod, so in this video I am going to test it to see how well it performs.

Fisherman: a rod with a jerk on one end waiting for a jerk on the other! 😂 Another good vid! That rod looks like a keeper! Looking for something similar here in the US.

[@dannydemaet4846]

looks like a good rod Den! Have fun fishing with it. Keep on fishing.👍🐟🐟👋

I got my silstar feeder rods from him there amazing no problem fishing the hunter

[@FishingwithDen]

Yep. They do seem to be fine mate.

That rod has some backbone mate!

[@FishingwithDen]

Its really powerful Richard. I think it will do us just fine at the festival mate.

yay

[@petercarruthers2576]

Being prepared for all conditions is the way ! Latest I can tell you about the MM is the flow has dropped right off. A couple of the guys fished it last week and had no issues and bagged on good fish. Down this end in SA the river is almost back to normal spring time flows. Unfortunately I won't be joining everyone this year due to some health issues

[@craigbeardsworth1305]

Hope your on the mend soon Peter

[@FishingwithDen]

Hi Peter. Sorry I missed this comment when it came in mate. Thanks for the info, its very helpful. look forward to seeing you in the near future.

Nice action and tippy can’t fault it 👍 can’t you use braid in the upcoming comp ?…and the best of luck to you and your partner 🤞

[@FishingwithDen]

Thanks Geoff. I don't think there is any restriction on braid, but I haven't really got on with it in the past mate.

Hi Den, I'm relatively new to your channel and am really enjoying the content, especially the bait and tackle experiments. Could I ask where in Australia are you located?

[@FishingwithDen]

I live near Newcastle in new South Wales Steven. Welcome aboard mate.😁😁👍👍

[@topfuelteddy]

Good watch Den , the mid range rod looked well up to thd the job . Looking forward to the match series, they are my favourite.

[@FishingwithDen]

Thanks mate. I just hope I don't stuff it up as badly as I did last time.😁😁👍👍

[@JamesG2758]

Best of luck with the new rod, Den.

[@FishingwithDen]

Thanks James😁😁👍👍

[@ralfmuentnich]

Hi Den, I really appreciate your experiments and tests.

[@FishingwithDen]

Thanks Ralf. They do seem to be well received mate.

[@Offcut55]

Great review. Goes to show that the mega expensive rods are only a little bit better. I sometimes still use my old split cane just because I whipped on a thread for quiver etc.

[@FishingwithDen]

Thanks Phill. I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised at how good this rod was mate.

[@BobKirk50]

Think you bought the right rod for that fishing competition you got coming up and looks good, Very well explained, I have been looked for it here in Spain but cant find it here. Look forward to watching the big match you got coming up.

[@FishingwithDen]

I agree Bob. In fact, in the unedited version of this video, I mentioned you in a tongue in cheek reference to the new 3D Printed feeders. Then I edited it out...😁😁👍👍

[@BobKirk50]

@@FishingwithDen Thanks for the reply, printers ready and waiting for your new design 👍

[@barbaraneville5036]

@@FishingwithDen In that sort of scenario I would be just using a 2.75 TC carp rod and a sidewinder quiver attachment rather than buying a rod but I don't really do much long range fishing on rivers with a really heavy flow

Nice rod Den. Might have to get one myself. I live on the west coast. I hit the dislike by accident. Sorry about that.
