There’s no fee for private seller now, so Graham will receive the full price.

They never did and such blank never exist. Mark tunely did build a 11ft torrix 1.25 by cutting the butt off from the 12ft.

The Harrison Avon is completely different from 12ft torrix 1.25. And it is not 1.25, more like 1.4lb, good blank though.

Well, unfortunately or maybe fortunately, there is no 11ft 1.25 torrix, and even there is, the action will be different.

Clive posted it on FB but sold it here. But as you said it doesn’t matter.

No, not floppy at all, tippy is what I would say. The rod is powerful in the mid to butt and I doubt not many chub can put bend it. I think this blank is very good for power float work.

From my understanding, only the buyer pays the fee. Seems it will automatically added to the listing price, so the seller has no control over it.

If on the rod, jw young neoprene reel pouch, I found it is better than the mill tackle one as the reel has less space to move and the neoprene is thicker than the padding of mill tackle’s pouch. Off the rod, very rare, but when I have to, the reel first in the pouch, and same as Ian, I put it...

It's not that light, I think it is between 1-1.25lb TC. The light tip is definitely not too light for chubbing, I always use 1oz tip in the winter with FS rod. The tip doesn't involve too much when playing a good fish because of the through action, when the rod bends, the tip is almost straight.

I have the solitude light quiver rod, I am well impressed with it, and the quiver is interchangeable with FS quiver.

Nice rod, very soft and sensitive. I also have the 11ft 2lb barbel rod, also very good. The only problem I have is the handle, like Kevin said, it’s thin, I think it even thinner than darent valleys. But maybe you will get used to it.

If you after the off the shelf floats for long trotting, I don’t think you can find better options than David Harrell bolo. But currently my favourite is Andrew Burt’s floats, looking forward to try Richard’s work.

Tacklebox skeleton rod sleeve, that’s what I use for single rod with drennan quiver

I have tried it before, tbh, I don’t think it is any better than the Gardner copolymer line.

He is good, really good.

Now, I am extremely interested in Leszek Delag aka Watermole’s reel, although I have no idea how to order from him yet (maybe through vintage fishing tackle forum?) his work is amazing. I would say definitely on par with Chris.

I use the Speedo bait caddy, it has a removable divider so you can have different baits, a hard bottom to maintain the shape, but the upper is soft so picking things is not a problem, only down side is it doesn’t have a cover.

12ft 1.25 torrix is a very tippy rod IMO. It has a sensitive tip and softish first 1/3, the butt is powerful, definitely stronger than the 1.5 version.

Some manufacturers glue the spliced tip, at least I know drennan did on one of their feeder rods. In general, a spliced tip is basically a fine solid tip that put in through the back of the top section and fixed with wrapping etc.
