Travel Rod Wanted

[Derek Funcks]

Anybody got one for sale ? Suitable for small barbel or tench fishing, must be able to handle fish upto about 7lb. Its to keep in the boot of my hackney cab which is quite small, max section length about 3.5 ft. Thank You.

Okay then, if no one has got one for sale. Could anyone recommend something that might be suitable. Thank You.

Derek,

Depends how much you want to spend, the 4 piece 11ft Harrison Avon Traveller in this link:

Is an absolute corker but it's £195 custom built.

Thanks lads, very much appreciated.

I can also recommend the Harrison Derek...I had mine made up by my local tackle shop in Kent [Mark II Angling]...that way I got what I wanted regarding handle length, rings etc....I'm sure there must be a shop local to you who could do the job....It fits nicely [crossways] into the boot of my Laguna and is protected by a cut down length of tubing that Mark II put the rod in for me.

Thanks lads, just heard theres a Harrisons workshop based in the Liverpool docklands area. I'll call in and see what they suggest. Thanks again.

Derek, that is Harrison's only workshop and where all their blanks are manufactured.
