Evening.. Thinking of getting a ruckall and ditching my Drennan rucksack. Has anyone used the Cult Tackle DPM ? I know the Fox Camolite gets good reviews Abut the DPM is half the price ( both secondhand) Advice & comments greatly appreciated.

Hi Jake Welcome to the forum, Send me a pm as to where you are fishing, as I fish the Sussex Ouse.

Welcome to the forum Aaron. I’m assuming you have joined Petworth or Pulborough AS? I asked a similar question re barbel in the Arun & Rother a few years back as I live in Sussex. The general response was ..” bloody hard going. Some members don’t catch from one season to the next. “ As long as...

For me the Seaguides look strange but I can live with that. More than happy as the rod has never been used! See you week after next Graham 👍

Too late Richard😀. Picked it up today for £75. It’s a back up rod so hopefully it will be fine but I know what you mean about the rings. Wouldn't be worth getting new ones fitted.

Thanks for all the replies. Much appreciated. Powermesh it is then.

It has 3 top sections - 2.25 / 1.75 and a quiver 1.5

Seeking advice from anyone who has used both rods please. Looking for a back up rod for my Torrix 1.75 11’ for when the river is pushing through or casting heavier weights. Fishing for barbel & chub on the Wye or closer to home on Sussex Arun/ Rother. Have an option to purchase either rod used...

Thanks Anthony. Will give it a try.

Hopefully not a stupid question.. do you leave the skin on?

What’s the favoured method… hook straight in or on a hair?

Hi Richard Just seen that on his website. Thanks for clarifying.

Depending where you based. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mark Tunley. Outstanding workmanship and a really nice guy.

Thanks Christian. I’ll give it a try 👍

Thanks Mike. Good to know on both counts. Will let you know how I get on.

Hi Mike It’s called The Old Post Office . The garden from where you can fish is opposite the caravan site from what I can gather. Not far upstream from hand ferry. Hopefully a barbel or two will be lurking nearby 😉 Having my own private fishing spot and making the most of it for 7 days was a...

Thanks Mark. Bit difficult re moving as I’ve rented a house that allows you to fish from the garden hence fishing early and late then going out during the day. I take your point though and might try elsewhere if nothing happening.

Thanks Mike.

Thanks Craig. Hope it improves for you and by end of September !
