At the mo I still have my Black Alloy Interlokk stix and bars... I think I'll keep them for 3 rod sessions and my cane for single or two rod outings... Interlokk gear is superb... I mean really superb, had mine many years now and its still as good as new

Rod is doing a Martinez and Bird Avon as I type... the Sharpe with the Speedia was rebuilt by Walter Sewell, I think he retired a while back he did a few of mine... a couple of named rods plus a few un named repurpose jobs... a fine builder... Rod had rebuilt quite a few projects for me... including several cane Roach poles... I'll be fishing with him in Feb and taking delivery of 3 rods and a pole at the same time. A lovely bloke....👍

The later Mitchell's had a strip of red chenille around the base of the spool to stop this happening... it wears away with age, you could probably replicate it with some fly tying chenille glued in place

That pool is Southwick pool, In Sept I fished the peg opposite and had this... Stuart (AKA The Sweetcorn Kid, hence SK films) popped over to see how we were getting on that day... I've know him since 2008 when we fished Les Quis... top lad, makes good vids
