I watched a video recently where an well known angler mentioned he had loads of tickets, most of which he didn't fish but they were paid for (or an amount claimed back) as it was classed as an expense of his job. Which I'm guessing is some type of self employed media person.

It made me wonder how many others are also doing similar to various extents

Cheers Wayne. Unfortunately Its an hour a half from me

Its just the butt ring on a spod rod. I've already got the replacement ring, I think I'm going to have a go myself.

Worst case scenario is it might look a bit **** and if it bothers me that much ill get it done properly

Cheers fellas

Need a butt ring replacing. Is there any people additional to what's below in the West mids or Stafford area? Thanks

cheers, I probably should have just got some then in hind sight

In reply to Post #3
You say great with braid but don't these have the non ceramic guides And you have not had any problems?

I was gonna get a set but this put me off

I think some people are just lonely and just want the interaction.

Suffering it now on ebay. A fella has sent me about 10 messages haggling a "buy it now" option which I've done for him and now he's disappeared.

The tapered mono lines are worth a look
