I have the Avid Traction Pro's which are good. There are plenty of people on here who knock Avid stuff and say that it falls apart, but I have some of their kit, and I find it's fine. Have rods, landing net holder, busbar that converts to a tripod, my lad has a bedchair, plus some smaller odds n sods and it's all good, reliable stuff.

Alternative 10 footer, it you can push the boat out, Cotswold do a Pace Compact at about £120. Think it's retractable, but I'm sure someone recommended them on here a while ago.

Just sold my set of 10' Freespirit CTX 3.25 . . ! They were good value at the time (£99 per rod) but have since seen a price hike recently - don't know about Helicals but they are the new FS value range so probably similar . . .

If you ever want to splurge can def recommended Harrison Aviators in 10' - I have 3.25s and they are superb/versatile little rods. . .

I bloody love my Wychwood Extricator.

I don't use it enough really, but when I do it's great fun.

love my tacklebox rods - absolutely fantastic.

if you aren't worried about the build then the kaizen greens have to up there.

I got the Tackle Box to build their 10ft rods with handle lengths pretty much the same as my 12ft rods and now don't use anything else for my fishing over here. Great set of rods.
Are you sure?
