    Hi Jim, it's the K.I.S. Sport Fishing, extendable. Have a Google they are around 100 quid but as good as the Bazuka Pro.

    I alternate between K.I.S.. And Bazuka Pro for air travel. For the back of the van might be a bit overkill. Have you thought of strapping them up high on the ceiling of the van? Nowt can fall in them then. Unless you roll the van🤔

    New Normark Rods

    For me at those lengths, and with a dolly section, I'll stick to what I've got for now. I really think they have missed a trick not having a dedicated 14, or 15 ft version of the avengers or titans. My bet is you will be able to pick them up much cheaper, once everyone has had their fill!
