    Roamer chair or similar

    Before there were Barbel rods / older rods

    I have the same rod I picked a few years back, I love it very much, it's robust, and the action is just amazing. Only problem is when putting the quiver on, its not two equal sections, so transportation is a bit of pain, but on plus side, the quiver won't get damaged. PS, Martin Bolwer also...

    Cheap pins

    I have high end centrepin from Chris Lythe, Garry, jw young etc. And very cheap one from Ali express, yes, the high end ones are very nice, and great build quality, but the cheap pin is good enough to use. If you are in doubt, try find a okuma centrepin, very nice with affordable prices...

    Feeder rod reel

    Much lighter, 4000 xr is only 255g, the 4000d is 385g. That’s why I put 4000d on my barbel rod.

    Cork vs Duplon

    I agree with sic guides, and asked Normark team about the sic guides, they think the cost is too high, and the alconite is good enough. I think daiwa and other manufacturers use sea guides for the same reason, cheaper and good enough. The most expensive daiwa float rod uses their own carbon...

    Sportex supersafe rod bags

    The problem for these hard case rod bag/hold-all is, they don’t come with place for landing net, which is super annoying for me since I don’t like carrying anything in my hand when moving. But the I found that the Preston did a 2 rod hard case with side pocket for landing net, and the length...
