    Sending a rod .

    I suppose it depends on what one deems to be appropriately packed. If a thick cardboard tube got crushed, the carrier would claim that was insufficient even though you and I both know that it’s fine.

    Sending a rod .

    Personally I think it’s criminal. The fact you can send heavier parcels for substantially less money is utterly bonkers. I would really like to know what it is about a long parcel that incurs such stupid fees.

    I suppose I have to say .....

    No humbug from me, but if you get near enough I'll share my cold/flu bug with you 😩 Happy Christmas you brothers of the angle (or should that be angel?!) 🎣

    Wanted-Cadence 15ft #3 float rod could swap for diawa connoisseur

    I don't think 188g is too bad to be fair. The 14ft #4 however... 270g :oops:🤯

    Wanted-Cadence 15ft #3 float rod could swap for diawa connoisseur

    All the data is on the Cadence website Lee, but to save your fingers I’ve looked and it’s 188g 👍🏻

    Pimp My Chair (Trakker Nano)?

    Right, thanks for all the suggestions and comments. I’ve done my homework and ordered a Korum S23 Compact for £70. Looks to be perfect for any terrain and only weighs 3.5kg. I’m 5’10” and 12 stone so it won’t be under much pressure 😄

    Flat banks and Yorkshire rivers are not really a thing Huanzhou ;)

    Pimp My Chair (Trakker Nano)?

    Hello gentlemen, My Trakker Nano chair is perfect... almost. What would make it even better still would be longer extendable legs for the front. I sometimes find that I need them to extend more than they do. Has anyone messed around with modding the legs of a chair? Or can anyone point me...

    Sorry to ruin it for you Mark, but like Santa, there’s no such thing 😉😆

    A Christmas Puzzle

    Superb thread Paul! For me a Kelly kettle is the kind of thing that sounds brilliant but would probably end up being a pain in the (my) ‘Arris. £100 is a weird amount. It could easily be plenty or not enough. A few bits and bobs and that’s your money gone. Or it’s a new reel or half a new rod...

    Old centrepin - no longer required.

    I’ve got a Trudex Mk1 that’s a nice user, albeit with a bit of a wobble. I’ve used it to roll meat with and it’s alright. It’s a narrow drum 4” reel. You can have it for £40 posted if you want.

    Preston supera X power float rods.

    You're probably right... my eye is not as good when it comes to things like that. I had the same thought! There is so little about these rods on forums or elsewhere. They're obviously throwing old Desmond out there to drum up business from the match side and the specimen side. I think that...
