About as much use as using PVA string as mainline.

Probably the worst company ever. I wouldnt even use the rods to grow tomatoes up on in the garden.

What are you after mate?

I have a couple of 10 foot rods that you can take off my hands for not much money - I am just up the road from you. Send me a PM if you want.

No, just trying to help. The chap is round the corner from me and is starting again after 25 years not fishing (read other posts). Perhaps he is on a budget, given he is looking at Badger.

My mate had some Badger stuff, the bivvy table, pram hood bivvy which had good quality material, he was pleased with it.
He also had a bedchair. Very heavy but performed ok.
Not the best but he was on a budget at the time.

I'd probably give the rods a miss though.

I thought Badger had stopped trading about 2001 when Des Taylor sold the company off so I cannot see anything new being available on the market

Only bit of Badger tackle I have is a landing net handle float and a tackle pouch and both are going strong to this day.
