Do any of you guys know if Defiant MPS are still trading? Can't find their website and I've had an email bounce back.
Desperate for a replacement bobbin!

When you do get through to Keith FFS don't mention dodgy internet if you are calling on a mobile. By the the time you've finished with his rant it will cost you more than the pod! 
Only kidding, Keith is spot on with his customers. Don't forget, he's got to make the stuff, answer questions, take new orders etc on his own.
You are buying a bespoke hand made article which doesn't quite fit into today's instant ‘I Want It NOW' culture. What you are buying is worth waiting for
Nowt to do with his business personally, just a happy customer with a few years old Leopard pod.

"his indicators and the new merlins"
If I buy these, can we add (screw on) extra weights if we need them?
I have been using bobbins with a bit of cord for the last 15 years and would like
something that doesn't flap around in the wind now :0)

Yep still do. A carbon trident pod and a small pair of his carbon 2 rod bars. Cover everything I need except a tips high situation. Rock solid when set up for locked up fishing. I lost a few of the plastic thumb screws on it several years ago and Keith sent a full set of titanium ones too replace. Don't ever see me changing unless it gets nicked, a titanium fantail would be ordered straight away

Im still using the original stainless s type. Made a bit wider on the front cross shaft
And quite short sticks. Must b over 15 years and as new.
Wide as its 3 rod but I mostly use 2 and low and stable . Left setup in my unhooking mat
Takes a few seconds to screw in the centre shaft , and your away.

On another note after a few years not fishing or frequenting the forum ive been catching up on the
Current trends. These korda singlz look like an MPS trident without the centre shaft.
If ive understood the video its a right faff. Pilot holes, digging sticks, undoing that stick and attaching it elsewhere and finally using stabilisers anyway. Sod that.

I'm using a titanium fantail - use it as single sticks mainly but happy with it when I have used it as a pod. Much more versatile than a normal pod and nice to be able to point the rods at the baits.
The only 'issues' I've found is that if the rods are spread too much that the butts hit each other/overlap making it a little difficult to lift into a fish. Additionally it is a little bit of a faff to set up (compared to my old fox x-pod).

I was thinking it would be straight forward if I kept the bank sticks all set up.
Don't you just screw the long pole joints in to connect front an back ?

I guess the rear ones can stay in the cross shaft
But the front ones will have to be loose. And then their is the three long shafts. So it does take a bit more putting together.

I've never had a problem ordering from Keith to be perfectly honest. I've just had some new stuff recently including the titanium river pod kit, lovely that is too! I think when you delve into handmade gear that's not mainstream and mass produced, you need to realise the people have lives outside of making us some tackle! Saying that I've never not had a timely reply, only time I didn't get one actually was when Keith's email address had changed, but the new one was on website, I'd just not looked (and it was a new enquiry).

It isnt ideal customer service but it happens. Having dealt with him a few times I would be very surprised if it was a lack of order value that influenced him.

How does the center shaft come off in the Panther, can you leave most of it set up and unscrew the center shaft or do you have to slide it off ? Also would you recommend having the cross shafts the same width front and back?

I've recently converted to the merlin chords from traditional chains, they are brilliant and I fished blustery conditions without a single wind beep first time of using. Look good too! Me (and one of my kids) did manage to damage one (or two
) by pulling on the chord instead of the fitting when removing them from their fitment, so just something to consider if you are a rough arse
These are fitted with the mk1 mag heads in the size that Keith recommends on his website

I have been using the merlins for 6 months and they are indeed excellent in all weather.

I have the trident and having a centre bar does not bother me re indicators. Neither is it unstable whatsoever.
But you'd need to order what you're happy with, all in my opinion of course

I've got the Titanium Leopard with the grubs rew fittings making it very streamlined. It was a custom build size wise and features the screw tipped banksticks enabling additions such as augers and state stage stand feet to be fitted.
I've noticed it doesn't feature on Keith's website so I don't know if it has been discontinued or superseded but it's a cracking bit of kit.

Bit of a random question - what size are the grub screws?
Have my pod arriving shortly and didn't think to ask. Want to make sure I have a hex driver/key to fit (although I would presume they're a fairly standard size/nothing very unusual)
Cheers,
James.

Does the marine stainless cord act like a chain or like a springer?

Think you mean a Banshee Chord, once in a "U" shape it just become a totally windproof Hanger.

A bit like a vastly improved version of the old nash bike chain jobbies. But still have the sensitivity of a regular chain such as a solar hanger?
