Now that I'm in my 50's I've decided I can say exactly what I choose - harsh but fair . . .hours of fun winding up my semi-woke teenagers

As for Jag lockdowns vs P1s got both but ditched the Jags - P1s win based on versatility and security IMO

I'm mulling it over in my head, coming to the same conclusion. A finger on one of the ears of the P1and you're away even if tight. Extra expense for the other JAG bit, carrying something that you won't need a lot of the time, and trying to find the cord when bleary eyed from sleep...hmm...guess it would be second nature after a while...erring to the P1.

The one thing I don't like about the Solar butt rests (I'm still using the original ones) is that they make a dent in my full duplon handles when I'm locking down the rods.

I like the look of the Jag rod locker system and would happily combine this with my P1s if ness - just find a neville ball peg (very unfashionable for reasons that escape me) in conjunction with a P1 is more than sufficient for UK snag / locked up fishing

Photos as proof...

I'd have had the P1's if I fancied spending out, but also worried about the sexy "stainless" going rusty...

Cheap aluminium that's adonized should be ok.

Has anyone used the new Sonik stanz lockers, they look pretty good for £6 a piece?

If anythink to go by with the sonik stanz banksticks I would steer clear, the mechanism on them barely grips the internal stick at all

That anodised aluminium stuff always reminds me of 90s BMX parts. Fishbone Gyro anyone?

Same here. Got jag lockdowns on my jag pod but nothing better than my John Roberts ones. May not look tarty but best I've used.
Are you sure?
