The new advert actually shows a fishing rod as the example of a long object. So if insurance is included, they would find it difficult to exclude them.

Hi all, Just seen a new advert on Facebook for Parcelforce. It shows a fishing rod and a length of up to 2.5mtrs. So I thought I would just have a look at prices. A two piece rod in a cardboard tube would be 1800 x 100 x 100mm and weigh about 2kg. The quote was a staggering £36 for collect from...

Hope everyone has a super day. Merry Christmas.

Hi Alan, Please see my post "chair modifications " October 1st 2020. Not sure about the legs on your Tracker, would need a picture of two. Hope this helps, Mike

Or a poncho !😁

Jack, I've purchased all my quality gear from guys on this site. They are a smashing set of anglers and always give you a true description of what they are offering. I'm sure someone will have just what you need. Good luck.
