    Pellets

    fair play, just a question though. I’ve found the pellet of old in all ranges are far inferior to what they used to be. I remember sacks of trout and halibut pellets used to be dripping in oil.

    Pellets

    Rod builder??

    Although I’ve not had a set of barbel rods built by them, I have used Cotswolds rods to build 3 sets of carp rods, fantastic quality and a vast range of blanks available, my original r1’s have seen over 500 nights since I purchased them 8 years ago and they have never let me down.
