BB in 2.5 are lovely things.

ive got lots of different rods all over the place which is a difference from the 2.75 that i used to use for EVERYTHING.

makes me wonder if a nice set of Harrison Ballista in 2.75 is the way to go for EVERYTHING up to 100 or 120

i have 4x 4500 they are brilliant reels!

old gear to me is stuff i couldnt afford in ther 90s
the slightly shonky oval brollies and overwraps etc and generally the scruffy appearance of carp anglers back then.
Are you sure?
