Expand I think what you mean is use what suits your fishing and if you need to use broomsticks to cast out then so be it,😀 Seriously though it does seem like we will all have to agree to disagree on this one, and let's be honest as long as you are fishing and happy with your tackle does it really matter, it would be boring if we all liked/did the same thing dayvid and commonly 1 1 Quote
commonly Posted August 4, 2019 Report Posted August 4, 2019 Let's all get together at Horseshoe and have a casting battle 😂. You never know we could get a few tackle/rod manufacturers willing to provide their kit and get endorsement from us members!! 😊 Donnygooner and carpyian 2 Quote

elmoputney Posted August 4, 2019 Report Posted August 4, 2019 I thought this place was a forum for free thinking carp anglers, I've ignored the jibes up till now I don't claim to be right all the time but I shouldn't be ridiculed for having an opinion which is different to the herd 😏 I've also never said that a 10ft rod is suitable for all situations, but it is more suitable for mine and that's why I use it, If I needed to cast a long way I would use more suitable rods commonly and snowmanstevo 2 Quote

commonly Posted August 4, 2019 Report Posted August 4, 2019 I've only tried the other carp one, social media is not for me. This one is better than the other one, but a bit heavy on deleting some very amusing difference of opinions, IMO🤔 elmoputney 1 Quote
