Oh dear, my wife heard the intro about having "one rod". My life may get difficult from now on 🤣

Can I ask if possible to get the part number of the rod tested please as when I check on the manufacturer site even when you selected the 12ft feeder it only shows the 11ft light quiver and just want to make sure I am going to order the right on thanks

Is this rod on the market yet? Looks what i am after.

A pity they couldn't have put a better reel seat on it, but I guess they're following a trend for low cost. Where are the 'consultants'?
