    How many of you are waiting for this long float rod?

    Interesting you picked up a Triaxial 13/15/17 Richard! I finally got one a couple of months ago. Not used it in anger yet ( I have a pair of Triaxial 13/15 that I really like) It feels good waggling it at 17ft in the garden, can't wait to try it out on the river.

    How many of you are waiting for this long float rod?

    Definitely on my wishlist, due to other recent purchases of quality long rods I won't be rushing in. Interested to hear what anyone on here who buys one and fishes with it thinks.

    Which of these rods.....

    One of the most disappointing float rods I have owned was a Harrison GTI 15ft SU. I found it heavy, numb and unrefined.

    Yes at Walton le Dale just outside Preston.

    Spate river rise

    The free stretch is underwater unsurprisingly. The footbridge over the Darren at forty steps has gone. London Road and Victoria Road in Walton le Dale shut due to flooding.

    17/18ft float rod

    If that's true Drennan take my money now! Would be ideal for a number of scenarios for my fishing.

    Rod for grayling

    A heads up for anyone that might be interested. Total Fishing Tackle have the 14ft Acolyte Specimen back in stock at £179.99...

    Rod for grayling

    I have borrowed a couple of their float rods for a weekend, didn't like them much. The RRP of a new longer one is not far off what you will pay for an Acolyte. They might make sense to me second hand perhaps if priced accordingly.

    Browns Angling Closing Down

    Was a very good tackle shop, I used to call in when I was working in Herts, Beds & Bucks area when possible.

    Wellies

    Grubs are terrible. I wear Bekina Thermolite, Dunlop Purofort thermoplus or Skellerup Quatro at work.
