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!!

That is superb Dave 👍

He lives next door to a taxidermist 😉😆

Skiing on top of fishing? That’s a slippery slope! I’ll get my coat 😝

On the back of this thread I’ve ordered a Kelly ke… oops, I mean a Thermos Ultimate flask for Christmas in 500ml size.

Sorry to ruin it for you Mark, but like Santa, there’s no such thing 😉😆

Superb thread Paul! For me a Kelly kettle is the kind of thing that sounds brilliant but would probably end up being a pain in the (my) ‘Arris. £100 is a weird amount. It could easily be plenty or not enough. A few bits and bobs and that’s your money gone. Or it’s a new reel or half a new rod...
