Fenwick 80lb IGFA- question for Sal

[UKChris]

That's good and I'm very much looking forward to seeing a picture of the end result. Did I say I love those Fenwick rods ( ) - it is the combination of wrap colours and the fact they just work so well.

It's when you are a whole day's flight from home on the first day of a week's charter, tied into a 1/4 ton of blue marlin using the boat's new rods, and you find they are a bunch of 'crop' that you wish you'd brought your own regardless of the excess baggage cost. One 130lb rod broke clean in half, one cut off a fish on a triple-header (roller fault) and we had to re-tighten the roller screws on each one every night - seventy of the little darling screws.

Good luck with the project!
