Looking for an allrounder
Touch of float work touch of ledger touch of free lining.
looking for advise on diameter and width recommends, would like to under stand why also if I can
I am not the best with a pin still learning but loving it, won’t be fishing massive flows with it also.
Using it for roach trotting through to chub, same when ledgering.
I will buy second hand so can be an old or new model.
Reasons for a young my godfather used to use them he loved them and is no longer with us so I want to get my self one as a nod and is nostalgic for me .
Will be paired with a one pound Avon - tench float rod - Torix 1.5 etc you get the gist.
I’m thinking : -
Again happy to be pointed in the right direction in terms of size for what I want to do but won’t be going on heavy rods.
Not sure if it helps I don’t have shovel hands but am 6.3 tall bloke with sizable hands
