A practical on the bank review and test of the NEW N-Gauge PRO Feeder Rod.

looks a great rod for the price , thanks Westy ...
well done Westy for another great video , some really nice carp there
We match fishermen will often re cast every two minutes for a say 10 to 20 minutes just to build the swim up with bait. Nice fish..!
Yes I will normally cast out 3/4 times quickly to build up a swim. Or hand ball some pellets/groundbait in to start a swim
Nice rod and some really nice fish there westy ,great evening session that mate
It’s great how Guru have used Westy’s colours 😉
I know ! How dare they 😂😂😂👌🏻
The rest swinging round is a good thing though 🙂 better than the rod flying off the rest
Been looking at this rod for a few weeks watched the ringer vlog . Then you go out and buy one watched the vlog listened to your views bought exactly same rod from leigh tackle £112
Fished with it today 81lb of carp 13lb ghostie 4 9lb carp rod was a dream to fish with highly recommended just ordered the pellet waggler so a big thank you Sir . Keep the great content comming ( Legend )
Really nice rod mate ! I wish I was getting a kickback from Leigh tackle they must have sold so many off the back of this video 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@les6480 congratulations les and a special thank you to Westy for bringing this little beauty of a rod to the attention of all us carp fishing fanatics as I have purchased one myself at £124 cos Leigh tackle has sold out at this moment in time… Happy Days Gentlemen and Ladies
went out Saturday , Park Farm fisheries , Leighton Buzzard , Had a dececent fish on each of your carp wafters .PVA bags and had a great day . thanks Westys
Belting evening session that pal 👍 glad you managed to give the rod a great workout 💪 and by the looks of it, stood up to all those hard fighting Ginghams carp 😊👍👌🏼💪🎣🐟🐟🐟
Lovely rod and some great fish, you had a good afternoon and evening. great video .. well done, Westy .
I bought the 9ft version excellent rod for the money easily as good as my free spirit ctx feeder rod 🎣🎣🎣👌👌👌
I recast every 3 mins in the summer, but the fisheries that I go have much higher stock of fish and usually you get a bite straight away.
The other thing I do is stop watch and check when I’m getting bites, if my bites are every couple of mins then I will recast after couple of mins if I don’t get a bite
I'm ever 5 minutes in summer with method/hybrid feeder
cracking test mat.....mite seriously take a look at those rods the playing action looked brilliant!...tight lines...
like you, I have the opportunist x specimen rods, and then I saw their opportunist x feeder rod. never looked back, it's my go to feeder rod.
I recently got a 9ft nytro ntr rod and reel combo from leigh tackle only £49.99 tested at the same venue (peg 3 opposite side) similar kind of rod action and handled low doubles. Good session there though Westy👍
I will check that combo out 👌🏻
Don't bother. I got the same 9ft nytro ntr rod... on 3rd session the 2nd section snapped on cast. 15gm Preston ics method feeder loaded with 2mm stiki pellets so wasn't overloaded. Rods are far too stiff in the butt section too.
Great stuff westy 👍🏻great review I have the original N-gauge rods. Looks like guide and carbon upgrade. I feel these rods are very soft and beast up in the butt section, progressive action. It’s a good all round rod will suit silvers and small hooks and you won’t get any hook pulls. Keep posting buddy useful info 👍🏻👌🏻
Awesome video bro, great camera work on the takes and that rod looks sick! Great session ❤
Another great entertaining video from the North Wests top You Tuber. As we say down south, you're the guvnor Westy.
Epic sesh by the look of it.Rod looks decent too.
Best rods I've ever used are the sonik sks feeder rod and waggler rod in 10 ft both less than £50 each
Yes I like my Sonik rods 👌🏻
Great video , ive got the original N Gauge , cracking rod winter and summer! I cant wait get my hands on one if these such a reasonable price aswell
I have regular n-guage 11ft rod. I'm very happy with it. Hope they don't plan to discontinue them.
Always interesting watching rod reviews. I do NOT get on with 10´ rods, I just cannot cast them. Ok, I have used 12´ rods for decades but I have a beautiful 10´ rod in the shed that never gets used, I hate it! The really weird thing is I have a 9´6" spinning rod that I absolutely love! 10´ just does not fit me for some reason.
I have the new N Gauge Barbel rob. Its 2 1/4 pound test curve. The rob build and general quality of the rod is excellent. Great price at just under £100.
A great video as always Westy. Spot on camera work. Can I just say these Guru rods are excellent, I have only been coarse fishing for 12 months as I fly fished before and I brought myself the Guru A class feeder rod 10 foot for £50 and I caught 41 carp on it last week so that speaks for itself. I might treat myself to a spare rod and it will definitely be another Guru one. Thanks again for your excellent test out. Keep em coming. p.S I. Might have to buy some of ya merchandise to match the rods colours lol.
That is one of the reasons I like guru ! Matches my merch 😂 I’m such a tackle tart ! I have an 11ft A-class and I wasn’t as impressed with it , but you can’t argue for the price 👌🏻
Glad to see you have found a replacement for your Shimano speed master .
I think the speedmasters are grafted to him.😂😂
Congrats again on the 10k
Looks good to me. Good filming & nice fish.
Great video i love the honest reviews! Lovely fish on that pineapple wafter 😏
looks like I am going to need to sneak more rods into the garage....
I think I need to start sneaking rods out of the garage Chris 😂 got way too many
the only thing i don't like is the long handle, thanks for the video
Great vid westy
Good session
Me being a preston tackle tart 😂.....
I love my ignition rods and inertia reels ...
Not the dearest of preston set ups but they feel absolutely brilliant
Mate had 1 .. brand new and pulled in on its second use
I can honestly say I pissed my sides laughing ...
Taught the smart ass a valuable lesson ..
A brand new guru rod was never retrieved and that's unheard of on the fishery it happened at
Was considering the Preston Acsension 11ft, but after this awesome test....I've changed my mind......I need the Guru instead. Great vid Matt. Nice fish !
Really nice action to it ! 🎣
The Acension is purely a silvers/bream rod not carp. I have a couple for natural waters. Guru ones all round because of soft and progressive action and power in the butt section 👍🏻
@christophersmith3338 Yes, I appreciate that about the Preston. I already have a decent 10ft method feeder rod which I love. I was looking for a silvers / bream rod for the cooler months. But the GURU seems to have all seasons covered with this one.
@@user-bx8nt7id6x ok mate no worries your right it will cover all scenarios 👍🏻
Love Guru gear !
Nice rod, now get a 24 TDR 3012 qd for it and thats the perfect combo :D
I need baitrunners mate for filming! So I’m limited 👌🏻
Nice price love it 🥰
Love watching the tip go 👌
Lovely looking rod.
The Daiwa Regal 3000 looked the part as well. You can pick one up for £36 and £125ish. for the rod...seems a good deal to me.probably get a few more beer tokens knocked off buying them as a combo.
The Daiwa regal’s have been cracking reels. I find the drag normally goes on cheap reels really fast but these have stood up so far 👌🏻
Nice video, nice rod.
Now you've discovered gingham you can't stop off it lol....method feeder fishing on there is certainly fun, hence why I'd use 9ft carp rods on there you just got that bit more control, like you've said they don't half go hehehe 😂😂😂
Would be good to have a comparison of the N-Gauge and the korum phase 1 10ft that you have used also.
The Korum is a great entry rod but it doesn’t compare to this. The quality is leaps and bounds better on the n-gauge pro. Though if I had to put it up against my Shimano speedmasters I think they would win 👌🏻🎣
That's a nice rod you have there Westy and a good tackle test.
On the subject of extended use, I notice you have been using the Korum S23 Deluxe chair for a while now. Any chance of a video with your opinion on the chair now you have had the opportunity to put it through it's paces in the field?
I don’t think I will have time to do a video on that for you, but it’s alright. It tilts forward slightly but you can fix this by putting the front legs up slightly. I believe in the new model they have fixed this issue 👌🏻🎣
Leigh tackles my local
Good session that mate,great rod too !
Just wondering what bank sticks or rod pod are you using mate as looking at upgrading mine hoping all is well
Great purchase mate. I’m debating whether to get the distance feeders 🤔
I have always fancied doing some distance feeder fishing for bream ! But mostly end up fishing close range anyway 😂
@@WestysAngling
I reckon you would adapt quite well mate!
I got the 12ft n guage distance feeder, for the trent and ponds...Cracking rod, I expect the new pro one to be that bit better.
Looks a great rod snaped might last weekend so looking for new one. I like the way you set your chair up did you buy it as a complete set or did you buy attachments separately
All the attachments are separate 👌🏻
What is the name of the Lodge your fishing pls. Keep up the good work many thanks
Ugh, had a session today. Early start to try and get a few hours in before the heat! Two blokes already on my swim, shaded swim! Venture into a swim that never fished before and knowing that its going to get sun early. 37 degrees at 11am, called it a day at lunchtime and retreated to the bar for a cold one at lunchtime! Just not worth it. The guys who "stole" my swim also caught nothing!
When u going back on gingham wanna meet u I fish gingham a lot and I will show u how to catch all the carp
Give orrell water park a review 😁
I will think about it mate, but public for filming etc
Güzel video (beautifull video)
Let's go

@user-cs5io9nq7p message me on instagram or Facebook 👌🏻🎣
Please can you go to Bradshaw halll fishies on Lake 2
They haven’t got back to my emails mate about filming there !
Hi mate is there a way I can use a wafter on a pre tied hair rig ?
Bigger wafters yes 👌🏻 just make sure it balances with the hook. Make sure it sinks slowly 🎣
@@WestysAngling okay thanks because the pre tied ones I have have the plastic bait needle guide and I tried fiddling sroudn but couldn't get it through withought it falling apart
Nice how much
110
Hi westy do you have any recommendations to a beginner to feeder fishing ?
Watch all my videos 😂 that’s my first recommendation 👌🏻you won’t be a beginner after that 🎣💪🏻
Hi westy, what pound line do you use?
Great videos by the way
I do say in the video buddy! 10lb, my go to is Diawa sensor, normal Diawa sensor not ultra sensor 👌🏻
@@WestysAngling sorry pal must have missed it, thanks for the quick reply, just got back into fishing after many years out off the game and your videos are bang on for tips 👍🏻
@craigaitcheson7053 thanks buddy ! Glad they are helpful 💪🏻🎣
What’s the name of the venue please
Gingham I think near Horwich
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍
Is it the new lucky rod😂😂😂
I think it is mate yes 😂👌🏻
nice rod but the reel ew
Nice rod mate
Maybe try a natural venue and fish the clip in a water where you have to earn your fish .. you could literally drop a pellet on a bomb rig and use a £20 rod and reel kit with 20lb mainline and a still bag up . Spending that much on a rod and just chucking it in the margin is not showing us the true potential of the rod only how it bends … well done on a great session though .. the rod looks great value
Just love to see you fish at 40/50 meters on a venue where the fish are a bit more difficult to catch ..
Get a grip lad. What a rude comment. For a start that 10 ft rod isn’t even rated to cast that far. Westy never fishes far out at venues natural or not and always gets some stonking fish. It’s entertainment and guaranteed put the rod to the test. Some people don’t have access to venues like you have suggested. He isn’t claiming to be a pro etc so if you want to test it on a distance venue put your hand in your pocket go and buy it and do it
Go get yourself a £20 rod and do it then. 🔔🔚
I think this comment is just badly worded. If you had said ‘westy id like to see you fish a natural venue fishing at distance hitting the clip’ it would have been better, there is no need to downplay or degrade anyone else’s style of fishing. It’s a light hearted video showing how the rod handles some nice fish. Nothing more nothing less. 🎣👌🏻
Ok guess I be been told ..just saying I’d like to see something different …not a harsh criticism and ad for getting a grip it’s rated at 40 grams and 40 to 50 meters is an easy chuck with a 28 gram hybrid
And as for me buying a £20 rod and trying it myself .. nah ..you keep it and take your family to blackpool for the day you ⬆️en 🐒
Great stuff westy 👍🏻great review I have the original N-gauge rods. Looks like guide and carbon upgrade. I feel these rods are very soft and beast up in the butt section, progressive action.
