Too true . I lost a rod after a ridiculously violent take on the St Lawrence River Canada
Using sort of a sky pod that was supplied by the guide. And having the ring bank side
Of the alarm. AND not even locked up lol.

Sighs.... not trying to be snarky but I was merely pointing out the pod doesn't allow you to put the butt ring in front of the buzzer. It wasn't an essay on snag fishing.

Mind you it could. Keith made mine to my spec. It was me that presumed
It would be the same length as my nearly 20 year old stainless Trident.

True.... I just assumed the length of the centre bar was the same as my trident. Still a brilliant piece of kit tho.

the main thing you should know is the waiting time is over 18 months , so whatever you order you will have a long wait

I bought a fantail last year and was nowhere near that long a wait. Think it was a few months from original enquiry to placing the order and then was 4/5 week build time

~ Centre Shafts were shortened by 5” years back due to practically everyone asking for them to be shorter. But there's no such thing as “Standard” can be made longer at request when the specifications are being sorted out for the order.

~ Putting Butt Rings on the inside of Alarms: I thought people stopped doing that many moons back when it was released that is was causing fractures in the plastic casings at the base of Alarms.

~ 18 months: possibly – as some stupid clown called Boris egged on by an even more stupid idiot called Starmer shut the whole bloody country down for 12 months, add into that the Chinese stuff did not exist, guess who was to busy to even try to make any for 12 months!

~ As for “Anchoring Down”, there six points of contact with the ground (That's 50% more than a standard “Pod”) all six have an independent ability to be driven into the ground, there's no way one should ever be able to move, regardless of weight.
