This reminds me of the okuma Trent t1002, it has a ratchet system that will against any flow (guess that’s why the name Trent) but has the trotting ability like Sheffield.

I agree there are a lot of weird things, but normally they don’t sell well in China as well. And when it comes to fishing, because the fishing style in China or East Asian is very different, I doubt there are any thing they could borrow, unless they start making whips.

To me the best are fast mat and folding quiver.

No one uses and sells these in China…

Most likely it will, but it does exactly what I want.

I think the barbel unhooking mat is even worse... But I actually like this one. https://www.korum.co.uk/en/new-products/kp-k0290113

I think Richard means those second hand ones on eBay

Am I the one that introduced these reels to you? My bad. If I want to spend that sort of money on a reel, I’d go with Chris lythe first. But yes, I want to try their reels, but never had a chance. I remember read somewhere these reels are too free running (whatever that means), but that’s all...

The spirt or gold e barbel is discontinued, but the tamer is not.

I only have the 11ft 1.75 seeker, it’s a different rod compares to my 11ft 1.75 torrix. It’s more through action, and the tip is not as soft as torrix, but the power in the butt section can handle any barbel in the river. And the blank is thinner than torrix.

Which builder are you using? Not many are stock seeker blanks now.

The fs spirit barbel is the e class barbel rod I believe, terrible name I should say. I don’t remember the exact price, but should be around 150-170?

Otter?

It was Roger Hurst said all hi s and a rang blanks are from Korea. Also on FS website, they only say Japanese carbon, not blanks.

Yes, fs blanks are Japan carbon made in Korean and China. The blanks made in Japan, like those high end shimano and daiwa blanks, are really something else.

Well, he definitely got that wrong.

Never heard this company and can’t find my information about it, maybe different spelling?

I read it somewhere that hardy used the carbon or blanks from Japan

Ordered an acolytes speci from my local shop following the recommendation from @Ian Woods and @Alan Rose. Saw a new daiwa air z ags on eBay and I am the only person bidded on it, so won it with less than half of the rrp.

I remember seeing this one, was considering bidding on it but I already have 4… Congratulations on the reel, one of the best reel to use
