Anybody got any real life reviews of the little Korum Progress Roversack then? I like the look of it, but I seem to have developed a preference for clips instead of zips over time so would need to be persuaded to sack off my Drennan Super Speci rucksack. I get the lie-flat business; had a few...
Just to prove the adage that there’s no such thing as bad publicity, I have ordered- notwithstanding this thread- a packet of Korum Camo Bolt and Run rigs!
Cheers Danny!
Cheers Ali!
Cheers Dick!
Cheers to all you innovators, pioneers and haters 🖖🏻
Can any of you chaps who have got the 25l Korum Roversack tell me the dimensions of the main compartment? If I can get my Greys box in it I'll probably order one.
Hi Steve,
A 15’ Acolyte Specimen would suit you perfectly unless you’re very exacting about action etc. I have the 13’ and would probably like the 15’ too. Just ask @Chris Jones about his catches with the 15’er. It’ll do everything you need it to do (barring catfish or something daft!)

I’d heartily recommend Aaron McCarthy as a seller by the way. Absolutely brilliant experience buying from him and top, top quality gear for a great price 👍🏻 Find him on FB marketplace.
My Torrix arrived this morning, superbly packed and IMMACULATE condition. I can’t see any evidence that it’s been used. Fitted with three-legged Fuji guides (8 plus tip) and a gorgeous wooden insert reel seat. Purple whippings look stunning in direct sunlight.

Got one! Thanks for your help everyone, my Mark Tunley built Torrix (not new) should arrive on Friday. She's a beauty too... bling reel seat with wooden inlay, and purple whippings (much to Mr Isaacs' disgust 😂) Had to pay a bit for P&P, but well worth it for a rod that cost just shy of £400 new.
