Glad you sold it Kevin and I’m sure whoever bought it got a bargain there. They remain perennially popular reels, and that is why I bought one to try a couple of years back. In the end I didn’t get on with it- didn’t like the way the line kinked on the pillars, or the way the shallow arbour...

Don’t forget to mark this as “sold” Paul.

Not sure it would ever happen trotting 🤔

Think I saw that on BookFace recently. You not like it then Kevin? 😆

It’s not really like either in use. I’d happily use 6lb line straight through as it’s a lot stronger than an Ultra.

Understood. Tricky to find long rods in stock, but worth a go. The current 17’ Connoisseur isn’t a power float model, so you may be better off waiting on a second hand Spectron. I’ve seen a few in the last 18mths or so.

Hi Chris, I’ve got a 17’ Acolyte. I have caught barbel with it and would probably be happy to do so deliberately in the right circumstances (lots of water, no snags). If you are planning on targeting bigger barbel then you’re looking at Free Spirit or Daiwa Connoisseur. @Richard Isaacs had a...

They look great to me. Nice and thick, plus they’re translucent so they glow and the stems are titanium and very bendable 🙂

I suppose it depends on what one deems to be appropriately packed. If a thick cardboard tube got crushed, the carrier would claim that was insufficient even though you and I both know that it’s fine.

Personally I think it’s criminal. The fact you can send heavier parcels for substantially less money is utterly bonkers. I would really like to know what it is about a long parcel that incurs such stupid fees.

No humbug from me, but if you get near enough I'll share my cold/flu bug with you 😩 Happy Christmas you brothers of the angle (or should that be angel?!) 🎣

I don't think 188g is too bad to be fair. The 14ft #4 however... 270g :oops:🤯

All the data is on the Cadence website Lee, but to save your fingers I’ve looked and it’s 188g 👍🏻

@Richard Isaacs 👀👀👀

Right, thanks for all the suggestions and comments. I’ve done my homework and ordered a Korum S23 Compact for £70. Looks to be perfect for any terrain and only weighs 3.5kg. I’m 5’10” and 12 stone so it won’t be under much pressure 😄

Drennan one.

Flat banks and Yorkshire rivers are not really a thing Huanzhou ;)

Hello gentlemen, My Trakker Nano chair is perfect... almost. What would make it even better still would be longer extendable legs for the front. I sometimes find that I need them to extend more than they do. Has anyone messed around with modding the legs of a chair? Or can anyone point me...

Me three!!
