Korum rods

Terry - I use a Hexagraph, the 1.25lb tc avon and I can assure you it's not heavy. "Light as a feather" would be my description, and absolutely brilliant to use. Granted, they're not everyone's cup of tea. Which model was Mike using?

Edit: The thread's meandered away from Korum rods somewhat, so apologies to Adam Wylie.
Is that what you use on the Dove Rich? Bet that’s good fun with one of those dove doubles hammering it round.
 
i can’t remember rich ( getting old it was only a couple of months ago) might have been a 1.75 it wasn’t the cane colour ones it was like a green/blue colour mike said it was one of the early ones don’t get me wrong it was absolute quality but just a little heavy for me.... not quite harrison 15ft gti heavy but heavier than i’m used to

Yes, Rich, on the Dove and Upper Trent. Lots of fun - but also really good stopping power.

Terry - the colour's just cosmetic. B&W can finish in pretty much any colour, apparently. Each to their own , though the 1.75lb must be a mighty rod.:)
