Why is it that we have to put up with those awful long sections when we want a specialist rod. Virtually all of them are in two pieces, having horrid 6 foot joints. Why not in 4 pieces?
I know that lots of you want to carry a rod fully rigged, but you can with a 4 piece. I know that many of you think that multi-piece rods do not have good actions.
Cobblers!
I have just aquired a lovely Harrison 9 foor fly rod that has one of the best actions for this type of rod that I have ever handled.
The big advantages of 4 and more piece rods is that they can be carried in a boot unseen. They can even be carried in the hand luggage on the plane.
Roll on the day when you don't have horrid lengths of carbon cluttering up your house or your car.
Modern put over ferrules are truly wonderful these days.
