Garbolino Addiction Feeder Light 12 2Sec

Garbolino Addiction Feeder Light 12 2-Sec: Precision at Distance

When you need the finesse of a light feeder rod but require a bit more reach than an 11ft model can provide, the Garbolino Addiction Feeder Light 12 is the ideal solution. Here at Gerrys Fishing, we find this 12ft version to be a superb all-rounder for silver fish enthusiasts who tackle larger ponds, canals, and slow-moving rivers where fish might be sitting just a few extra yards out.

Crafted from lightweight and superslim IM Carbon blanks, this rod is designed to be exceptionally responsive. With a slightly higher casting weight of 50g compared to its 11ft sibling, it offers the extra backbone needed to punch small to medium feeders accurately into a breeze, while still maintaining a beautiful, progressive action that protects fine hooklengths when playing fish.

Sensitive and Versatile

The Addiction Light 12 comes supplied with two interchangeable SUPERFLEX 2.2mm tips (typically 0.50oz and 0.75oz), ensuring you can detect the tiniest flick from a cold-water roach or a cautious skimmer. The painted tip ends provide high visibility in all light conditions, and the power rating indicated on the base of each tip makes for effortless setup. Finished with a premium mixed Cork/EVA handle and a secure tubular reel seat, its a rod that feels significantly more expensive than its price tag suggests.

Where to Use

• Open Stillwaters: Perfect for when you need to reach the second shelf or a distant feature on larger natural lakes and ponds.

• Large Canals & Drains: The 12ft length is excellent for keeping your line clear of marginal reeds or high banks while maintaining control over your feeder.

• Slow-Moving Rivers: Ideal for finesse river work for roach, dace, and hybrids where heavy gear would be overkill.

• F1 & Skimmer Venues: Provides the perfect cushioning action for soft-mouthed fish, reducing the risk of hook-pulls at the net.

Technical Specifications

Gerrys Top Tip: To maximize the accuracy of the 12ft Light model, try to use a smooth, overhead casting style rather than a flick. The longer, slimline blank is designed to load up gently; letting the rod do the work will result in much tighter groups on your bait spot. Pair this with a 4000-size reel for the perfect balance of weight and cranking power
