10''
bespoke/handmade Butt Bite Indicator. POST FREE Colour: Please Select from Drop-down Menu
This butt bite indicator has been hand made, in the U.K, in the same manner as a
custom built rod. It is based on a 3mm GRP fibreglass blank sized at 8 '', with a short length of thick walled silicon tubing connecting to one of 3 black plastic coated rod clips, giving it an overall length of about 10'' The rod clips are black plastic coated sprung steel and come in 3 sizes, 6-10mm, 10-14mm & 12- 16mm, covering virtually any coarse fishing rod, and can be fished down or up the rod. The fibreglass blank is smooth finished with a 12mm ceramic lined single leg ring whipped on to the end, giving easy line passage for casting and smooth bite indication with little friction. The coloured end is approx' 45mm long and whipped in rod building thread for brightness and long lasting colour, it is triple whipped and coated in 3 coats of rod building epoxy to add some weight to the tip for stability to combat wind and wave motion, without compromising bite sensitivity. The single leg 12mm ring has a ceramic
center that will last a lifetime with any type of mono or braid.
These indicators will virtually last forever, I have made these for friends over the years and am making small batches of them
due to demand and a renewed interest in traditional methods of fishing. Brilliant for roach, crucians tench etc etc.
I have been building, refurbishing and repairing rods for over 25 years and also offer reel servicing and repairs. These tips are all individual one – off’s and bespoke, you will not find another exact tip on the planet, should you want a variation
making please contact me, I can build to your specification if you
are happy enough to wait a week or so.
This indicator will be sent first class post, using a signed – for service, large letter size and sandwiched in cardboard/bubble wrap for protection.
