Am I the only one left in the world who actually prefers full length cork handles to the modern dacron, rubber etc rod handles or cork, with various reel fixings?
I thought the changes were simply a cost cutting exercise when the first non-cork versions came out, but obviously all the top range (and budget gear) avoids full length cork like the plague these days.
I appreciate that a reel fixing can hold the reel better - although i have had them jam so you have difficulty getting the bloody thing off. I guess i must just be a dinosaur.
