Looking to buy a decent dedicated marker rod. I've used the spod rod for everything last couple of years but I want a dedicated marker. Either second hand or new, what would you recommend ?

What's your budget? High end, look at Harrisons torrix or aviators, I have torrix spod and markers in 12fts and aviator spod and markers in 13fts.

I used to have marker rods but found the spod rods better, the extra stiffness helps get a better feel

I've just found a fox warrior s spod I had in the cupboard, bought it brand new years ago and only used it a couple of times and forgot about it , I think il use that for now 👍

Is it the 5.5lb one? That'll do!

Yes it is ! It's in mint condition aswel. I'm going to use that for now 👍

If you really want to feel what's down on the lake bed stop using the rod tip. Point the rod straight at the lead/float and full the braid through the rod rings with your fingers. Try it, the difference is massive.
This means you can use any rod that can get the lead/float out there.

I've always preferred 2 spod rods. Once markering is done you can have 2 spod rods set up clipped to different spots.

I use the tip but always hold the braid as I agree you get so much more feedback than relying on the tip
