Cheers Phil,was maybe hoping it would be useful for a bit cleaner ground work too..not to worry thanks bud.

You could use it they have decent bite detection but would be hard work.

Cheers bri,tried rod yesterday reel seat is spot on.Thought i may have needed to modify it with a coaster but was steady as a rock as it was.
