A superb feature.
Stay safe and thanks

Only way to check depth accurately with rod is with a marker float ( like us carp fisherman ) apart from deeper sonar which you can’t cast as far. Like Steve says a lot of variables.

Some really good information there stave . Cheers mate

I hope they last as long as my Antares you designed . I still use my 2 every week. Great bream rod

[rolandjacobs]

Fishedferry meadows on the nene bank at Milton ferry chucking up to a buoy probably 50/60 mtr a yacht came along did a turn at the buoy tipped the bloke out he stood up in the water I hadn’t got a metre of depth .got some nice bream though and got a payout

[philnotley]

They are quality but eye watering priced but with Steve’s name on it it’ll be the😊 best there is

[stephenarmstrong]

Never seen Steve look so comfortable in a interview type situation. The rods look amazing but unfortunately a bit out of my league.

[zoltanszoke]

I don't see any rationale in the casting distance - atmospheric pressure correlation from the scientific angle - excuse the pun. It makes little to no sense to me. One of these superstitious claims can ruin the credibility of the whole thing.

It would take the financial clout of a millionaire to buy every rod that is recommended for different styles of angling. Not to mention the price of the top of the range poles. An expensive piece of kit does not make an angler any better. Keep that in mind when you are being fleeced by the manufacturers.
