Better aerodynamics - ports act as wind tunnels.


Are you going fishing with it or throwing it???

what happrens during torrential rain with a bad wind? do you have to empty your rod before every cast? Maybe just me being sceptical.

Right, I'm off to reinvent the wheel :roll:

UP THE DEISE!!!!!!!

If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

KStaff winning matches is the new black.
