Congratulations to Steve Hill on the new Yorkshire Derwent river record at 13lb 2oz.
Many struggle to catch on there, never mind doubles and the ousting of the long standing river record.
I have been after a second TFG X1 River and Stream (11' 1lb 2oz TC) and failing, so I have looked again at 11' 1lb TC rods (nominally for Perch) and these seem to fit the bill. Any one used them or got some alternative to recommend?
Anyone used or seen this?

How light is it?
I realise its low (too low for some) and not adjustable for height but it may be just what I need for those far (1 mile+) swims.
Lateral line count was 43 - could be Rudd
Golden yellow Eye - could be Rudd
Golden upper surface, lightening towards lower - which is consistent with Rudd in murky water.
Dorsal - Pelic fin alignment points to Rudd
Anal Fin points to Rudd
Complete absence of spawning marks suggests not...
I know all worrying low but you can now use the EAs website to find out what's happening.
see: http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/homeandleisure/floods/riverlevels/default.aspx for online levels from all the EA monitoring stations.
Tried for these when visiting Christchurch Harbour and Aberystwyth but wondeerd if anyone has tried further north along the East Coast? Think I have seen them in the Humber but float fishing bread at 100m is not quite on!
Any pointers?
