No bother; I spoke to Geoff Salisburyjust before the Carbotec feeder rods were launched and he said during field testing, anglers had hooked fish and then turned the rod through about 135 degrees so as to point the rod directly behind the angler 9and away from the water) and the rod action...

Looking for £90 posteded
