    I like it particularly as it reads like an adult platform, in the proper sense!

    What a wonderful site this really is!

    Just 2 to rods left for me to seek. One came up in a peripheral discussion. One member said there was one on marketplace, which I had missed as I always search TFG, eventually found it as it does not carry their name, as another member pointed out and a third then offered to collect it today...

    That's wonderful. Seller says it's her late husband's. She doesn't have PayPal though. Can I send money to you instead?

Does that strike a chord?. I have messaged seller and will buy if I can get it to me in essex for eeadonable cost.. I was...

    Barbel float Rod difference Diawa

    its strange how our beliefs moderate our decisions rather than necessarily facts. I had and tried most of all the x 45 blank rods, tourneys, rs , ags air etc. Never broke one but forever marvelling that they didn't and expecting a bang frequently. To me they were spectacular blanks but just...

    I live and learn. I thought it was just the river that goes through Huntingdon down to st Neots and beyond.

    My plan Cliff was to use it for smaller lakes with a Polaris float.I had used a sliwa 10 barbel for that method and I think it would suit that method very well. As indeed my Avon does at 1.6. Pity I broke the 10.9 reactorlite yesterday but pleased to say getting it fixed.

    Thanks for reply. Up your way today as off to Snettisham for a week. Do you fish at Hemingford grey? I went a few weeks ago to see a charity open garden and thought the river etc was outstandingly beautiful.

    Tri-Cast John Allerton Rod, anyone use it?

    When I researched the TSI 11' 1.2 I bought from Rob, I found the title probably derives from " Trophic State Index" which is a classification of biological productivity in lakes. I interpret as " being the equal of" ie anything in there, when I looked in a dictionary. I can find mention of a...
