Used to duplon but fancied a change. Would you leave on plastic or remove ? If removed, how do you keep the cork clean (if possible)?


You don't, it's called patina.

Bear in mind that none of these water are syndicates, they are limited membership season ticket venues.

Mate, it has taken me since July to get a replacement rod tip.

The only good thing, is Tom doesn't seem concerned about the payment, as he won't give me any payment details. I have asked, and shan't ask again.

As other have said in my thread a few weeks ago and in this one...Stay well away!!!

Difficult to do, as the R1 blanks are built specifically for them by Harrison.

I acquired the rods second hand.

All sorted now.

Thanks for the comments.

Can anyone tell me if Cotswold Rods are still operating, please?

Ordered a replacement R1 tip section in July to replace one that I broke.

Communication has not been great and cannot get a reply to WhatsApp messages or phone calls.

Last I heard was tha the tip was ready on Friday, 22nd November saying that it had been built and would be sent out the following week.

Getting very frustrated to the point of driving half way across the country to have a word.
