They look great Terry, that colour combo is a contender for sure. How are you getting on with the screw down reel seat? You don't see many rods with that configuration, i haven't had a rod with one like that for years and years.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and pictures, I'm not much closer to a decision, but it's definitely helping.

I would imagine that looks stylish Derek

I'm thinking of getting a couple of rods built and I'm starting to think of what colour whipping to go for. I've picked up most of my rods second hand over the years and have never given it a second thought previously. I get this is a very personal thing but just wondered what people's...

It's still fairly early days for my pair of Okuma Pulzar 6000's but I'm very impressed so far. They compare well to the 6000OC's on my pike rods.

That one has ended and I don't think that it met its reserve...

Thanks for that, i agree it's counter intuitive but i also get it. I'd not really given much thought but had assumed that the leverage was putting us at advantage if the rod was stiffer. I see now that it doesn't, it's the fish that gets the advantage. His previous video, linked to in the one...

It's not one ive used or am familiar with but Ascot Dr in Derby is full of little units, so seems plausible. Using a credit card to get some protection seems wise if you go ahead with your purchase.

Where are you George?

Ooh i do love a gadget. Share your successes please chaps.

I’ll take two please Adam, PM me your details and I’ll get the money over to you.

They seem to have transitioned from "its impossibility expensive to fix our victorian sewage system" to "sorry we'll fix it, you'll have to pay for it though. Don't worry it won't cost much" Do they think we are daft?

I picked up a couple of second hand rods yesterday. Both have perished foam at the bottom. Is there a way of easily replacing this, or is it a complete handle strip down job?

I haven't yet Rich.

That's kind of you Rich, thanks. I'm tempted, but torn between these and a chimera 3's.

Where are you based Terry?
