Hi Derek, thanks for the reply.
All understood, but it's the *weight*, not the action, of the oldies that's


Understood - it's just that I've not (yet) found a CF rod with an action and
underlying strength that suits -me- for that sort of fishing (in my area there
may be other, larger fish in with the grayling and even a 2lb grayling makes
the line sing in a heavy current.) Maybe I should start looking again...

I've a couple of elderly Abu closed face reels I want to resurrect as well
as an old pal of a Rapidex, so it's not only pins I'll be using.


OK. As long as you can feather line without jerking.

Cheerio,
