Didn't even know that bed exsisted, I just paid the same amount for the carpzone lake lounger plus and its smaller. The wideguy may have to go on my Xmas list.
i have the cyprinus wideguy double, bigger than the nash emperor.
its big enough for me and the wife to lie together on but i just like the spreading out for comfort
let me know when you are going out again Ian and i will pop over with a good supply of lager, i can get right royally schizzled and you can sharpen all your scissors on my leavings (just dont tell steve)
Apologies; didn't read Nick's post properly
The albright knot is also good for joining two mono's of different diameter (You should make the first loop with the thicker line and loop the thinner line around it).
Should have seen that one :doh!:
Although thinking about it, I've walked around Boddington with the dogs a few times and seen plenty of scissor sharpeners
Like any rod, in general you'll get what you pay for. If you spod a lot, and at distance, spend the extra. If you seldom spod, or do so at shorter ranges, go for the cheaper option.
Most cheaper rods now are more than fit for the purpose. There's no need to spend mega bucks unless you require serious performance.
IMO.
