This is what I use now, especially handy when handling spiny, toothy critters from the sea. Though you do get some odd looks when you shout "shoot" and your on your own holding a fish🤣.

Sorry no pic but my new rods arrived today these are the Diawa D carp 12ft 3lb TC, typical Diawa they look ace, super slim blanks in matt finish and very understated logo just the "Diawa" name in a slightly darker colour, super slim with short Dupron handle paid £29 per rod and have to say they ooze quality

Tough week in France, Brothers Lake. Weather was all over the place but not really doing anything, light winds going all over the place and temps freezing one minute, warm the next and regardless of that the fish seemed to migrate into the 2ft shallows every night - so odd. Was expecting to smash it on the dam wall in the deeps 🤷‍♂️. Stupid fish - anyway ended up with 7 to 45 which I said i'd be happy with before the trip. Nice lake and surroundings, would go again, recommend having 2 anglers although you can have 4. Special thanks to our Yonny for the camera advice, the final pic is my last self take with max blur it really pops, thanks mate, getting the hang of it slowly 😎👍
