Not a river sorry!but let's hope the pike are playing

Your right,i think it's a good idea,but as said ,let down by legs being 6 inch too short

It's just the weight off the s23 chair that bothers me,I have some long walks to my favorite swims

The problem is carrying everything a long way and being comfortable leaving my arms free ,most off my fishing involves 1 mile plus walks,am trying to make it easier fir myself

Good point,I'd not just thought of that

Will be interested to have a look at one of these when they come out next year?could be ideal for shorter sessions?what do you all think?https://www.korum.co.uk/en/products/chairs-barrows/kp-k0300050

Too meny edges on them and had a few wrap ups,so fell out with them.

Just come off the river had a few hours to test my handywork,I have to say very impressed ,they are plenty bright enough to read the rod tips,without being too bright,not once did I worry about a wrap up when casting. Thanks for all the help on here,I would recommend doing it to anybody. Oh had...

Cheers Richard, now iv done it once iv got the confidence to do it again and I know where I could make improvements on my whipping and finish,they are on my Korum rods......I wouldn't touch them if they were DLST custom builds!!

Cheers richard,here's the finished product,just a couple more coats of paint needed I think

I will do Richard,but please bear in mind I'm a agricultural fitting engineer, not a rod builder!!!!

Quick update,I've shrink wrapped the isotopes on whipped and painted and replaced the tip ring,I'm more than happy with the resukt considering iv never even whipped an rod eye on before,just got to try them fishing now.

Thanks Pete,I'll forward your details to him and if he's interested he will becin touch,he lives in Manchester so could be a problem,and I totally understand about the posting issues.

Iv spoke to him,he is deffinanly interested in one rod,could you please pm me an idea of price for one and your contact details so I can pass it on,thankyou
