    is it worth it?

    Naughty David - Hexagraphs are hardly beginner's tackle! I have a 11' 6" 1 & 3/8lb TC Hex - wonderful rod with an amazing fighting curve. So is my made to measure cane rod for a fraction of the Barder from a very nice man who makes them in Hull - I think equal of the Barder in every way.

    Fresh cup o' cha

    For afternoon fishing I prefer Darjeeling, and then move onto Earl Grey for after dark! NO milk. If I were to fish mornings I might be tempted with an Orange Pekoe

    Actually not looking for any new reels as I can still get what spares I need from Okuma. Chris, appreciate the suggestion but it would have to be single handle.

    Just did not want to see you waste your money - even one of my local tackle shops suggested I look at other makes some years back. I think your option is a good S/H Shimnao or one of the Okumas - I use the old style Epix Pro (iin 40, 50 and 60s), the newer ones are quite well priced...

    Sonik SK3 Specialist Tri -Tip

    The Sonik Carp Rods have a good reputation but unless someone has used this rod I suggest a waggle about and accept that one tip will feel "wrong" There is a review at: http://www.soniksports.com/uploads/media_items/sonik-tritip.original.pdf

    Trying To Travel Light

    This cutting down of tackle is all well and good but I drink a serious amoiunt of Tea when fishing and struggle with less than 2 litres per 8 hour fishing trip! At least the flasks weigh less on the way back!
