Trouble is when moving swims and I want to fold them down the 4 sections could be a nightmare. Yeah wouldn't want a fully telescopic rod, I'd imagine them to be crap! Figured the retractable butt section wouldn't be too bad.

That's great, thanks mate. Never used a rod with a retractable butt section before, I'll check out a second hand scope rod. Did have a quick look at them, their guides seem to be on the wrong way round! What that all about? 😄 trying to be different i suppose.

I'm going to be fishing and new spot, it's a bit of a walk and very overgrown. I'm thinking of going down the retractable rod route mainly so I can strap it to my rucksack for the walk and make it easier once there with the overhanging trees etc. Has anyone used them for Barbeling and any you'd...

brand new unused condition, comes with cloth bag and hard tube. £200, collect from Alton Hampshire

Thought I'd missed something.

I recently bought some 11ft 2.25lb rods, the bloke I bought them from said the were custom gti blanks. I did email Steve Harrison and he confirmed they probably were gti's. I just have nothing to compare them to. They are very nice rods, landed me big Thames Barbel and casting 4oz feeders mid...

That's perfect, thanks mate

Can anyone that knows or that has tried both of them me the difference between the gti blank and the avon blank? Thanks

I use 12ft 2lb Torrix for Tench and find them perfect for the job, like you landing me big carp to 44.8. I use 11ft 2.25lb harrison gti's for bigger river Barbel, they are very through action and think they wouldn't have copped as well with that Carp.
