I bought one 25 years ago. Used it once on a trip to Ireland. It's up in the loft somewhere... must put up for sale, if somebody wants one. A complete pain in the ar5e, but if it gave rise to the invention of the Thermos flask, then at least some good came of it.

I got my Christmas present a few weeks ago - Drennan acolyte specimen float rod 15ft brand new and unused exactly £100😄
Going to get the wife to wrap it up and put it under the tree and pretend I didn't know!

Bargain - where did you / your wife source that?

eBay
Buyer collect - I think that's what would put a lot of people off, but not me!
Iam from reading and on one occasion I drove to Essex to collect a free spirit rod for £50!
In the past I've brought new Harrison rods, (two sets) but most of my rods and reels now are second hand.
There's plenty of bargains out there if you're prepared to look / wait for right thing at the right price.
