    10ft rods…..

    Hi all, I've also been thinking of the Wychwood fltr, as a barbel stalker rod, used with a centerpin. As an old f##t, I don't like the modern trend of unlined Rod rings and looking at the rod details on line, it doesn't specify if lined or not. For less than £60, I think it would be perfect if...

    Unhooking mat

    Hi all When you had a couple of 18lbs you soon realise that a standard unhooking mat of 90 cm (Drennan, Korum etc) is just not big enough! I don't like Korum products but the super lite XL mat is JUST about big enough, and not too bulky, but as the wife says size really does matter! I have a...

    Barbel Beer

    Yes Steve, Nick is sadly missed, really nice bloke, Nick taught me to Wallis cast! I don't drink Bitter but I have a toast to Nick tonight. I've just put my swallow centerpin reel on your Fox FX Rod, so hopefully I'll catch one for Nick next season Wayne

    Freespirit Tamer Power Float 15'

    Oh I forgot, I was lure fishing with a brand new rod, hooked a tyre, tried to reel it in upstream and broke the top section.

    Freespirit Tamer Power Float 15'

    I've reversed over a pair of barbel rods and reels in the dark, heated a noise, but drove off. It wasn't until the following morning that I realised what has happened, went back, rods and reels still there, rods totally f##ked, reels fine. Also I have broken rods, but picking up near the tip...

    A Christmas Puzzle

    eBay Buyer collect - I think that's what would put a lot of people off, but not me! Iam from reading and on one occasion I drove to Essex to collect a free spirit rod for £50! In the past I've brought new Harrison rods, (two sets) but most of my rods and reels now are second hand. There's...

    Acolyte users??

    Hi all I've been thinking of buying a 15ft Acolyte specimen rod since they were released, buy I couldn't really justify spending that much money on a rod that probably will only get used half a dozen times a season, so have been on the lookout out for a second hand one, well I think I've been...

    2.25lb rods, which won’t break the bank?

I Brought a second hand pair of Fox Duo FX rods about 10 years ago, but unfortunately I managed to reverse over them! I claimed on my house insurance and put a wanted add on here to which a BFW member offered me a...

    2.25lb rods, which won’t break the bank?

    Hi all Excuse my previous post! Anyhow what about a second hand pair of Fox Duo lite FX twin tips - 1.75 & 2.25lbs. I have had Chimera and now prefer the Fox Duo FX with a stiffer but section. Don't like the build on the newer Fox X4 Regards Wayne

    Wanted Nash ultralite chair

    Chub low light chair. Light and strong and comfortable, only downside is the amount of adjustment in the back legs, fine on sloping ground but a bit too low on flat ground. I'm nearly 90kg, and have had no issues with frame or cover Regards Wayne
