Hiya matey. Do you mean the new Preston Ignition feeder rods or the reels ? Thanks.
I think the gentleman is referring to this rod...I recommend a reel of at least a 6000 size and preferably using 25 pound braid (Minimum)

Yes sorry wasn't very clear on that.
No it's the fairly newsreader feeds it's main use is for baiting your swim at distance when using the preston wired cage bait up feeder.
Sorry that should read fairly new preston feeder feeda rod

Why not buy a cheap 2nd hand barbel rod or heavy feeder rod? Just because they tell you it's for feeding your peg it doesn't mean it's any better than other rods. They're trying to convince you they're re-inventing the wheel.

I think ED has blown you out mate. She doesn’t ask about you now she asks about Forest.

The thing to bear in mind with spooding reels is they take one hell of a beating when in use.
There is no point in putting a cheap reel on the rod as the internals will crumble very quickly.
I use an old poker stick rod by badger (found abandoned at lake) which is rubbish for fishing by ok for a light spod.
On that I have a shimano Triton baitrunner as it's built like a tank.
One of the original baitrunners built for sea fishing so I know the internals are solid
I would recommend the shimano aerlex out of this lot.
Its stood the test of time for heavy spod and beach casting work.

Thanks Rudd for info sorry for late responce. I do have a shimano aero that I use to use in my carping days so that should be ok do you think. Got rid of all.my carp rods though apart from a Terry Hearn special build and i don't want to use that. Although now preston have brought out the new line of reels for good money may be the big size in them would be ok. Cheers
