ouchthathurt Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 Just brought a pair of Kodex 9ā 2.75tc āstalkingā rods for an upcoming camping trip. Ā£100 for the pair. They have been paired with a pair of my old shimano baitrunners, with a pair of old nash siren bite alarms Iāve got knocking about they should be good for slinging in the boot. They will be ideal for small river/canal work too. They have minima guides (or effective copies anyway!) and cork handles - my other boy can use them so we will be all 3, daddy and two sons, all carp fishing in a line!Ā elmoputney, Highy, B B and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
