I've got a set of Enthos I still use. Bought them about 15 years ago, really like them.
I only bought some new reels a few months ago because I fancied black 
No doubt the Entoh's will come back out when I'm bored of black and want something with a bit of bling lol

I don’t really change my gear very often. I tend to just change stuff if it gets knackered. I don’t really treat my stuff very well so I’m probably not the best person to buy expensive stuff cos I’m so clumsy. My rods, reels, alarms etc are all old. My barrow was until recently an original carp porter from about twenty years ago. My rod bag is a Union Jack Aqua quiver that’s god knows how old. I try to by well made stuff that will last and then I don’t change it. Even my jag stuff is a mixture of old style points, some never lever stuff, some thumb wheels. I’ve got black sticks that I use on a grey pod. Etc etc.

Yes you could do that if you wanted. The only difference would be that tour rods would run parallel, if you had the front and rear bars your rods would angle away from one another.

No problem. Thought I’d do them now before I get stuck into something boring like gardening

Rear closed
Rear open
Front closed
Front open
Rear closed (no good. Bail arms hitting reels)
Rear open
Front closed (simulating using a closed front bar as a rear. Er no.)
Hope these help. As you can see clearly here. To use as a three rod you need them extended. For two rods with the middle blanking caps fitted they work perfectly wIthout needing to extend them

thanks mate - I assume however if you get 2 x rear these work well if using two rods with the middle removed. makes a more snug set up rather than 2 x front

Yes they will fit, you just have to extend the bars out.

Both bars need to be extended regardless. You wont fit 3 Basias on them with out extending.

To be honest I don’t think I’ve ever tried to use them with three rods in the closed position. I will let you know later but I reckon it would be stupidly tight. Lots of guys do by x2 fronts rather than a front and back at the shows. I use the std front and rear without issues. My reels are entohs.

cheers mate, that answers the pod question, will just go for the micro.
Thanks on the buzz bar. If you can't fit 3 big pits (basias) on the rear un-extended can you get them on 2 x front un-extended, or does both bars need to be extended regardless?
Appreciate the feedback mate, top man
