My mate bought a Fladden Warbird, all the lads were taking the **** out of him
but what a excellent value rod and it looks quality, good caster as well.

K2 Extreme is no available for multipliers
http://www.shakespeare-fishing.co.uk/1365.html thinking of getting my hands
on the 16.8' anyone tried fishing one of these yet?

Have up speced the reels to Abu Ambasseduers 6500 CS Mag Elite and 7000 BG
HS so now it's the rods turn...

Got a serious addiction problem 10 rods and 11 Reels

which, in your opinion, is the best rod
around, giving value for money, performance, build etc.


Without doubt the new Shakespeares, 14-15 & 16 feet of quality and

performance.
Have a look at one, up there with all the BIG names now but not at big

name
prices. Downside, if you can call it that, they're designed for fixed

spool
reels but will handle a multiplier. With a good F/S reel and light line

they'll
put a bait out of sight with an overhead thump. Some of the England shore

team
used them in Portugal to win gold. They beat the continentals at their own

game
on their home patch. Awesome. Cheers, Norman.

No! 6lb to 80lb boat rods, uptide rods, roller rods, standup sticks, spinning
rods, ledger, float, mullet and bass rods.
11/12 ft to 16ft beach rods. No fly rods (yet!) Fixed spool reels, casting
multipliers, boat reels, 2 speed boat reels, lever drag reels, closed faced
spinning reels, might have a couple of old centre pin reels somewhere. All have
a use at some time. Some will never be used, too good or collectors items, most
have fond memories and my daughters don't fish so they are all in good nick.
Handy to have if a friend or family member wants to try it. Cheers, Norman.
