This slim float rod, a successor to the Drennan Ultralight series, is a step forward in rod design. The blank is incredibly slim and light, despite its strength. Meanwhile, the full cork handle features a Fuji reel seat and an engraved butt cap.

Cutting Edge Blank

The slim blank is made from high modulus carbon with a new design cross weave carbon overwrap. Paired with a compact float reel, the 13ft version tends to sit above horizontal in the hand. The 14ft model weighs 5.25oz (185g), most of which is in the butt and handle. That makes the 14ft Drennan Acolyte Ultra Float Rod feel better balanced than most 13ft models.

The blank has a very rigid feel and a light, crisp action with little to no bounce. That gives it excellent line and float control. Meanwhile, the soft tip action acts as a gentle shock absorber which prevents hook pulls.

Supports a Range of Lines & Hooklengths

Both the 13 and 14ft models are designed for reel lines from 2.5lb to 4lb plus (approx. 0.12/0.14mm up to 0.16/0.18mm). They allow for ultra-light hook lengths to below 1lb (0.08mm).

You can also push the monofilament breaking strain up beyond 4lb and land a bigger fish with confidence because there are considerable reserves of power.
