I would use the 12' rod for targeting barbel in faster flow and autumn, and the 11' for use in the summer and for other species or stalking.

    warm winter coat

    Snugpak is definitely worth the money and British made 👍 However, have a look at the Aqua F12 Thermal Jacket. It is exceptional quality and super warm. I got the jacket and matching trousers this year from Santa. :cool:
