I hope they hit the deck, it's what I assumed when I bought it. Should have asked I guess 🤣

Really liked this idea, not seen it before, although not that clued up on custom specialist rods. On the sight tip the orange is whipped on instead of painted. Simple but very clever I thought........

Thank you both. Is a 20mm butt the norm?

Thanks for all the advice, now looking for a new pin to go on my new 11ft 1.75lb Torrix that's in the process of being built. Is the JW Young River specialist a good shout?

Sorry to hijack your post @Jon Kennard , I'll take the discussion elsewhere.

Sorry mate, just read it properly and you said you hadn't used it. I'll give you what you paid. Never even seen one before, this is all new to me but I'm intrigued and they look quality. Pm you now mate.

How much do you want including postage @Alec Hague ?

Please excuse my ignorance but would this be suitable for ledgering?

Cheers Richard, appreciate the advice, exactly the sort of thing i was looking for!! Assume that's what you have on your Torrix?

I forgot, here's the photos of the rods he built me last year......

For anyone that's interested in the size comparison.........

If it's a choice between and old shimano or an SS then it's a no brainer, gor for the Daiwa. I love the old XT7 shimano's but they don't compare to original SS's. Personally I think the 750 is too small but I suppose if your holding the rod then weight might come into consideration. I have a...

@Daniel Earl I think the old GTM with fighting drag would be even better, they came in smaller sizes.

All the old XT7 shimano baitrunners had the same size bodies. The 3500-4000-4500 were superseded by 5010-6010-8010. The 3500 had a smaller rotor and bail arm than the bigger two but the bodies are the same size. The biggest 4500/8010 had deeper spools but the sam diameter as the 4000/6010...

You got any pictures of these mate?

Good perch in the canal then Graham?
