One into the mix is Shakespeare B1 15ft specimen float rod... 4 to 8lb rated...

Absolutely

Your right Tim, its just not that simple using braid... its not everyone's cup of tea.

Thats why u must use a leader. Apart from losing kit it stops undue suffering to fish, by anglers inadequacies, by not using a leader.....

The leader will always be pointing downstream, its only 5 foot long, so it's fairly inconsequential tbh. The fish ain't bothered either, I used to use amnesia black in 25lb, the more they can see the better, even on shallow Yorkshire rivers. You can use fluoro, if it makes you feel better.

Should read 0.22m.

Been using Daiwa j braid 0.23. A few years now. 100%, just make sure you use a leader, braid and rocks don't like each other. I use Gardner tricklink as my leader.

Its quite a big owl UK and EU.

This was in my warehouse a few weeks ago...

Got the 12 and 13 footer Borons, I still look at the action, when a fish is on and think wow...

Basia 2.75 or Chimera 3? Gotta be be the Basia, you won't need another rod as its so versatile. Have you tried both rods?

Think they'd make excellent Wye rods....

Hope they are better than the Free spirit 15 ft Hi S, that came out this year. Just a little bit undergunned for me.....

Hope this helps..

I have got one, will try and get a pic later for you....

Nice

Sorry Steve, deffo keeping the 6 and 8000 thunnus.. the 4000 are needing a new home though..

Got some 4000 thunnus...

They have an updated version now, to alleviate the soles coming away. etc

As a rule, I simply tie a granny knot in any line and pull for a break. That should be enough to test a line.
