Just to add to the point raised about fitting isotopes to Korda distance sticks.
Korda advised me to use a baiting needle pushed up through the hole in the bottom of the plastic head to remove the spirit level.
There is no way a baiting needle would have moved it.
I had to resort to a very small Philips screw driver, pushed so hard I felt sure the plastic would break.
But, sure enough, after much pressure, they eventually came out.
Job done.

My 48 inch stanley level was a pain in the ass to carry to my swim 😀

Bet your bed isn't level anymore now you've stopped taking it

There is good reason to use them, I’ve been mapping out a large water that goes down to 53 feet areas that are rocky as hell and so pin point accuracy is the difference between camping and fishing not so divvy imo.

I have the long Avid sticks and put some isotope tops on them use them as markers on boards etc most of the time, when I do count wraps I find the curve extremely useful making it easy to load and unload.

I have the Avid sticks and added rubber o rings which do the same job as the grooves on the more expensive sticks saved me having to buy new sticks. I think the idea originally came from O.G. thanks.
