Is their a particular reason you want the Aqua? It's bang average and overpriced for what it is. If you just want waterproof/breathable as opposed to warm then the Korda dry kore is pretty good and a lovely material, no 'crunch' if you know what I mean.
Ideally, proper waterproof clothing...
The Fortis Tundra jacket and salopettes are incredible. 25,000 HH and 25,000g/m2 breathability rating. The material is much harder wearing than the SJ clothing range, which is their collaboration with Snugpak. The Tundra isn't Fortis X Snugpak but I wouldn't be at all surprised if Snugpak made...

Picked these up on Ebay last night, never seen them before, don't know what they are like but they are a lot of rod for the money and tick a lot of boxes for me.

Sorry to bump such a thread but with these rods being pretty old and with a nice 'players action' would I get away with using the 1.5lb as a big perch/roach job up the Thames/Hants Avon they would they be over gunned?
Morning,
Looking at getting a pair of rods to fish for perch and roach on the tip on rivers. Mainly the Wey, Hampshire Avon and Thames.
I'd really like an old pair of Fox Duo Lite specialist but have been trying to get a pair for months with no joy.
So, my question really is would I be...
Good afternoon, been a while for me, hope your all good.
Just been visiting some friends in Salisbury and have seen vast amounts of various rivers, seem to be everywhere.
Without going onto too much detail can anyone point me in the right direction as to what river'(s) I many have seen and any...
OK, so I haven't uploaded any photos, apparently they are too big.
If anyone wants photos now I can send them via WhatsApp or I'll take some more tomorrow.
